Two dozen members of the Civilian Police Academy Class 54 graduated last week.
Beginning in May, individuals met for nine Wednesdays from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. at the Police Training Center, 2838 Woodhaven Road.
In all, they studied 13 courses. CPA’s motto is Understanding through Education and Training.
Cpl. Megan Fabrizio leads the class. Participants gave Fabrizio flowers and a plaque in appreciation of what they learned from her and fellow instructors. They also took up a collection for the FOP survivors fund.
Among those who spoke at the ceremony were Deputy Police Commissioner Christine Coulter; police Capt. Steve Clark, commander of the recruit training unit; and City Councilman Curtis Jones.
The next class will begin in September. To apply or for more information, contact Fabrizio at 215-934-4147 or [email protected]. ••
