SALISBURY, MD (December 10, 2025) — Wicomico County Public Schools is proud to announce a unique collaboration between the Salisbury Police Department and the Career & Technical Education (CTE) program that will enhance safety at Parkside High School. The Salisbury Police Department generously donated a used police vehicle to the district, which has been fully refurbished by students in the CTE Collision Repair and Criminal Justice classes.


This hands-on project provided students with real-world experience in automotive repair and law enforcement procedures. Collision Repair students worked diligently to restore the vehicle’s exterior and mechanical systems.

The refurbished vehicle will now serve as a dedicated patrol unit for the Parkside High School and Schumaker Complex campus, reinforcing the district’s commitment to safety.

This partnership also demonstrates the power of community collaboration and the value of career-focused education. WCPS extends its Thanks to the Salisbury Police Department, Police Chief Dave Meienshein, and Salisbury Mayor Randy Taylor.
