Community Police Academy

The Weatherford Police Department is excited to invite our community to apply for the upcoming Community Police Academy. This free, five-week program is designed to give adults a behind-the-scenes look at public service and policing in Weatherford. Classes are held on Thursday evenings and are open to community members who are 18 years of age or older and not currently in high school.

The Academy will run from March 5 through April 9, 2026, meeting each Thursday from 6:00pm to 9:00pm, with the exception of Spring Break on March 19. Dinner is provided each night. Space is limited this year, so interested applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.

Our goal is to build stronger connections between the Police Department and the community we serve. Participants can expect a fun, informative, and interactive experience that includes engaging presentations and hands-on activities led by Weatherford Police Department Officers and staff.

To join in the fun, complete the following application:
