Not only can you go to teach while working as a police officer, but there are several Law Enforcement Education Program grants and loans available to you.

In some states, like Oregon, the police departments will pay for your college and living expenses while going to teach. You have to pay it back with interest when you graduate, or work for four years for the dept that sponsored you. Four years of employment with the sponsor cancels your debt, and you get full pay and benefits during the four years employment.
