APD Top Dog Sworn in at SPARK

Atlanta Police Department will participate in Career Day at SPARK by speaking to students about a future career as a police officer and how the students can help the police by staying vigilant in their own communities.

The classroom discussion will conclude with the appearance of a surprise guest, McGruff the Crime Dog, who will officially take the oath of office as APD’s new top dog.  The oath will be administered by Atlanta City Councilman Michael Julian Bond, who recently donated the McGruff Crime Dog costume to the Atlanta Police Department to assist them in their outreach to youth.
