9th Annual Junior Police Academy!!!!
 
The Ocean Township Police Department will once again be sponsoring a Junior Police Academy this summer from July 5th to July 9th, 2031
 
The Junior Police Academy is not a “boot camp” for troubled youth, but a camp designed to operate like an actual police academy. You do not have to want to be a police officer to enjoy this camp! The objective of the Junior Police Academy is to educate the recruits with various police procedures, history of law enforcement and familiarization with numerous specialty units within the law enforcement field such as Police K-9, Special Weapons and Tactics (S.W.A.T.), Traffic Safety, Haz-Mat and Emergency Management, Motorcycle Patrol, Bicycle Patrol and Criminal Investigations to name a few. The curriculum will consist of educational activities as well as physical training.
 
Those wishing to participate in the Junior Police Academy must:
 
Must be a current 5th or 6th grade student (all students eligible)
 
Must be eager to learn and participate!
 
Applications are available at the police department lobby and are due to be returned no later than April 30th, 2021. Due to the overwhelming response the last several years and new covid restrictions we are significantly restricting attendance. Please do not wait to turn in your application. Acceptance will be on a first come first serve basis.
 
The cost of the academy is $75.00 and a check or money order is due at the time of acceptance.
