Syracuse Police Officers Visit SAS ES for College & Career Week

Friday, January 10th, 2025: On the final day of College & Career Week at Syracuse Academy of Science, fourth-grade students received a special visit from members of the Syracuse Police Department. The officers engaged with the students by reading the book The Police and Me and answering questions about their careers in law enforcement.

Students had the opportunity to learn about police officers' daily responsibilities, the training and education required to enter the field, and the importance of building strong relationships within the community. This interactive experience allowed students to better understand law enforcement and officers' role in keeping our neighborhoods safe.

A special thank you to Officer William Clayton for coordinating this visit with Ms. Cahalan and the eight other officers who took time out of their busy schedules to join us. It was a memorable experience, and we look forward to welcoming them back again!

Stay tuned for more exciting highlights from College & Career Week as we continue to inspire our students to explore a variety of career paths.
