PCSD Police Department Swears In First Class of Officers
Today, we celebrate an important milestone for the Paulding County School District Police Department. On Monday, July 27, the department's inaugural class of police officers was officially sworn into service by PCSD Police Chief Mike Ruple during a special ceremony. Following the oath of office, each officer received their official badge, department vehicle, and other essential equipment and credentials before beginning their training. This milestone represents a significant step forward in our ongoing commitment to providing a safe, secure, and supportive learning environment for every student, employee, and visitor across Paulding County School District. Please join us in congratulating these officers as they begin their service to the PCSD community. We wish them continued success as they prepare to serve and protect our schools.
