Columbus State Police Department

Today is a solemn reminder of the true cost of freedom. The men and women of CSPD stand in profound respect and gratitude for the military service members who gave their tomorrows for our todays.

To the families of the fallen: we see you, we honor you, and we will never forget your loved ones' sacrifice.

Behind every graduate is a village—and we are so proud to be a small part of yours!

Our team loved seeing all the smiles, cheers (and maybe a few happy tears) at Friday's graduation. Thank you for letting us share in your big day.

Congratulations, graduates! Your future is bright, and we can’t wait to see where it takes you.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the results of our recent fundraiser for Fairytales and Tiny Tails Cat Rescue!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community and the hard work of our officers, CSPD raised a grand total of: $1,205!

Every dollar raised goes directly toward medical care, food, and finding "forever homes" for the cats and kittens of Fairytales and Tiny Tails. Thank you for making this possible!

Our officers might be tough on crime, but we’re clearly all softies when it comes to our furry friends. 🚔💙🐾

Honoring the Badge: National Police Week

This week, we join communities across the nation to observe National Police Week. It is a time of mixed emotions—immense pride in the work our officers do every day, and profound solemnity as we honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

To our officers: Thank you for your courage, your long hours away from family, and your unwavering commitment to keeping Columbus State safe.

To our community: Thank you for your continued support. We don't just work here; we live here, and we are honored to serve you.

Looking Back on 250 Moments of Kindness!

Last week, CSPD participated in the Attorney General’s 250 Random Acts of Kindness Challenge.

It wasn't just about checking off a list—it was about the connections we made. We saw firsthand how a small gesture can change someone's day, and honestly, it changed ours, too. We were honored to serve Columbus State in a way that goes beyond the call of duty.

Check out some of our favorite moments in the photos below! 👇📸

Behind every badge is a pet waiting at the door with a wagging tail (or a judgmental meow). This National Pet Week, we’re introducing you to the real bosses of the household! Meet the beloved pets of our officers and staff

The Real MVPs of the Campus: Happy National Teacher Day! 🍎📚

Today, CSPD wants to give a massive shout-out to the incredible educators we work alongside every day.

While our job is to keep the campus safe, your job is to build the future—and we see the heart, patience, and dedication you pour into your students. From the early morning prep to the late-afternoon grading, you are the backbone of our school community.

To our campus teachers: Thank you for being mentors and leaders.

Thank you for your partnership in keeping our students supported.

Thank you for making our schools a place where kids feel inspired to grow.

We are proud to stand with you and protect the halls where you work your magic. If you see a teacher today, give them a high-five or a "thank you"—they’ve certainly earned it!
