TESTIMONIALS

My son hasn't stopped talking about and sharing things he learned over the past week. It was a very rewarding experience for him. Thank you to all involved!" - Linda Spencer Vaudreuil

​

"it is the best program any parent can send to their children for a brief life experience that they will never forget for their future" - Giovanni Toscano

​

"I am a Graduate of the 25th academy class having been a police explorer cadet sergeant with the Gilford New Hampshire police department. The academy was and still remains one of the most rewarding experiences of my life because, it allowed me to push myself both physically and mentally to do things I never imagined possible. I made good friends and the camaraderie made between me and my squad was great. The cadre as they are known really care. Our commandant commander Tuttle ...was tough but fair and the assistant Commandant Commander Terrien was a Marine who we were all afraid of but determined to be like. I love the academy and promote it every opportunity I get at my college for prospective criminal justice majors to go through or people that want to attend a different kind of school that will blend with their studies as some cadets have been from non criminal justice interest backgrounds. all the best and keep on leading on!" - Eric Miller
