⭐️ National Police Week ⭐️
National Police Week is a time to recognize the service, sacrifice, and commitment of law enforcement officers across the country, and especially those who serve right here at Collin College.
Our CCPD officers do more than protect our campuses. They build trust, support our students and staff, respond in moments that matter most, and help create a safe environment where our Cougar community can thrive.
This week, we also honor the officers who made the ultimate sacrifice. Their legacy is a powerful reminder of the courage and dedication this profession requires.
To our CCPD team: thank you for your service, your professionalism, and your unwavering commitment to keeping our campuses safe.
We are proud to serve alongside you.
