Suffolk County police officer Sabrina Pitch recently paid a visit to West Islip’s Paul J. Bellew Elementary School to speak with students on various topics.

As part of the community education program Police Smart, Pitch discussed internet safety with fifth-grade classes, providing detailed information on how to safely navigate the web, which websites to avoid and the dangers of misusing social media. She also reinforced the importance of never giving out personal information on the internet. While at Bellew, Pitch met with third graders to talk about bullying, personal safety and being a good citizen.

Pitch will return to Bellew later in January to discuss alcohol and tobacco use with the fifth graders.
