After 16 LONG weeks, Mike has graduated from P.O.S.T. Which means he is now L.E.O
(law enforcement officer) certified as well as corrections certified. This has been a Crazy, but exciting ride for us! There were 15 other men that came from all over the state that started out in the academy along with him, but only 13 of them made it to graduation. Mike has learned a Lot while going through this experience. It has made him a stronger person- both physically and mentally. He was pushed in these 2 areas WAY beyond what I think I could've handled. He was even nominated to be his class president, which required him to do a little bit more- but Mike is always up for a challenge. I am so Proud of him!!!!!
The ceremony was really nice. They had an active duty officer sing the national anthem to begin the ceremony.

His class made a video about some of the things they did. it is about 10 mins long, So if you have a minute take a look at what Mike has been up to for the last 16 weeks!
