Citizens Academy

The Citizen’s Academy is held annually in the fall. It guides and educates citizen's through the operations that keep the City of Tarpon Springs running. Academy participants will tour key facilities, learn about the challenges the city faces, and have the opportunity to talk with city leaders about current issues and events affecting Tarpon Springs. Citizens would also have the opportunity to meet key staff members and receive insight about the essential functions of the city. City officials will, in turn, gain valuable insight into citizen's priorities and needs.
