The newly trained officers were among 68 recruits who graduated yesterday, surrounded by friends, family, and fellow officers. Sworn in with the police department in June, Patrolman Andrew Everman, Patrolman Hunter Matthews, and SLEO II Matthew Parrish successfully completed 21 weeks of the demanding academic and physical training required, including NJ law, physical fitness, defensive tactics, vehicle operations, firearms, managing critical incidents, and more.
Ptl. Andrew Everman is a graduate of Cinnaminson High School
and a veteran of the United States Marine Corps. Ptl. Hunter Matthews is a
graduate of Rancocas Valley High School and is pursuing a degree at Rowan

law enforcement careers, and we look forward to their future contributions to
our community!
