Community Engagement Officer Speaks with Atoms

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2022—Syracuse Academy of Science and Citizenship elementary school welcomed Community Engagement Officer, Jimmy Oliver, from the Syracuse Police Department (SPD) as a guest speaker and reader in March.

As a Community Engagement Officer, Jimmy is actively involved with the greater Syracuse Community through building strategic partnerships, athletics programs, and being a community representative. Jimmy is also involved with the Syracuse PAL program.

The Atoms were fascinated with Jimmy's career with the SPD and asked many questions about being a police officer. While Jimmy isn't involved with the law enforcement side of SPD, he did happen to share with the Atoms sticker police badges.

Jimmy also read to the students the story, 'The ABCs of Black History.' Thank you, Jimmy Oliver, for taking time out of your schedule to speak with the Atoms.
