Michael Dumas, NNCS Class of 2000, was recently appointed to the rank of Field Training Officer after a rigorous application and performance evaluation process.  As an FTO, Officer Dumas will train and evaluate new recruits after their graduation from the police academy.  New recruits are required to train along side a field training officer to receive
hands on training and on the job experience to ensure their success as a police officer.  FTO Dumas was born and raised in Norfolk and attended SUNY Canton.  He resides in Chesapeake, Virginia, with his wife, Michelle Power Dumas, and their two-year-old twin sons, Connor and Braden.

The  Norwood-Norfolk  School  Community wishes Michael continued success.
