how do you become a Police Officer

Hi,
That is a great question...being a police officer depends on the city or police department you want to work for. I would suggest checking out the website of the city you are interested in and finding out their requirements. In general, you do need a high school diploma...some departments require some college and military experience does help as well.
A lot of police departments have programs for youth like Police explorers or career programs so you can see what a police career is like before you graduate.
Good luck!
