CHOICE PROGRAM
|
ATTENTION SUFFOLK COUNTY PRINCIPALS & TEACHERS – The Sheriff’s
Department has a cadre of officers that visit schools within Suffolk County to speak with
students about making the right choices. The presentation is geared towards students in the
fifth through ninth grades with the intent of making young adults aware that they are
responsible for their actions and that their actions have long–lasting consequences. If you
are interested in having the Choice Program come to your school please contact Deputy Abe Ayuso
at 617–635–1100 X3156 or aayuso@scsdma.org |
