If Geneva County High School students hoped to leave their mark on the Hartford Police Department during Homecoming<\/a> Week, HPD has some bad news: They need to step up their game.<\/p>\n

According to HPD, seniors \u201crolled\u201d the police department overnight, leaving behind a little toilet paper \u2014 apparently not nearly enough to impress Hartford\u2019s finest.<\/p>\n

\u201cApparently the seniors \u2018rolled\u2019 the Police Department for Homecoming Week last night,\u201d HPD posted on Facebook. \u201cAnd we just have one question:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s it?\u201d<\/p>\n

\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff<\/p>\n

Then came the review.<\/p>\n

\u201cRespectfully, this might be the most mid rolling in Hartford history. The effort was giving \u2018my mom said I have to be home by 9.\u2019 Absolutely zero aura. Negative rizz. No cap, we expected better.\u201d<\/p>\n

Officers said they walked outside that morning prepared for \u201cabsolute chaos\u201d and instead found approximately 14 feet of toilet paper and \u201cwhat appears to be a mild inconvenience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSeniors\u2026 y\u2019all really thought you cooked,\u201d HPD continued. \u201cYou did not cook.\u201d<\/p>\n

The department reported that morale remained high and estimated cleanup would take \u201csomewhere between 45 seconds and two business minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then came the official score.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll give it a solid 2\/10. Points awarded because you did, technically, show up,\u201d HPD wrote. \u201cDo better, Seniors. This was not very sigma of you. Skibidi or whatever the kids say.<\/p>\n

\u201cGo Dawgs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The good-natured roasting quickly drew a crowd of its own on Facebook. One commenter thanked the department \u201cfor being a good sport,\u201d while another had her own assessment of the students\u2019 effort: \u201cIf \u2018How much TP can I buy with $1.65\u2019 was a picture. The seniors need to step up their game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Apparently, this wasn\u2019t the first time someone in Hartford had the same idea.<\/p>\n

One commenter recalled that \u201csomeone\u201d rolled the police station in the square in the mid-1980s. Her uncle had pictures of the evidence, she said, but \u201cnever\u201d found out who was responsible. She praised the students for keeping this week\u2019s prank clean and in good fun.<\/p>\n

But the Facebook roasting was only one glimpse of the relationship between HPD and Geneva County schools during a week built around the theme \u201cOur Town. Our Team. Our Tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n

During Future Day at Geneva County Elementary School, students were encouraged to dress as what they wanted to be when they grew up. HPD officers found plenty of young Bullpups dressed for a possible future in law enforcement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were excited to see so many of our young Bullpups dressed as police officers,\u201d HPD wrote. \u201cThe Hartford Police Department is proud of all of these kids and especially proud to see so many of them interested in law enforcement.\u201d<\/p>\n

The department said getting to know and interact with GCES students is \u201cone of the best parts of this job\u201d and wondered whether officers had gotten a look at a few future members of HPD.<\/p>\n

The community will come together again Friday for the GCHS Homecoming parade at 2 p.m. and the Bulldogs\u2019 homecoming game that night. The homecoming ceremony begins at 6:30 p.m., followed by kickoff at 7 p.m.<\/p>\n

Whether Geneva County students accept HPD\u2019s challenge remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

But for Round 1, HPD has spoken.<\/p>\n

2\/10.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo better, Seniors.\u201d<\/p>\n
