Celebrating Service and Dedication at the NYPD Graduation Ceremony

The NYPD proudly welcomed 959 new police officers during a graduation ceremony at Madison Square Garden on November 9, marking the culmination of six months of rigorous training, dedication, and sacrifice. Led by Police Commissioner Jessica S. Tisch, the ceremony marked an important milestone for the recruits and their families, celebrating their commitment to public service and the successful completion of their academy training. As they begin this next chapter, these officers carry with them a shared responsibility to lead with courage, act with integrity and serve every community with compassion, professionalism, and pride.

Congratulations to Officer Christopher Ungro, recipient of the New York City Police Foundation Exception Community Service Award, and to the newest members of New York’s Finest.
