Safe School Essay Contest

Sheriff Bellotti's Office sponsors the Safe School Essay Contest two times a year in various Norfolk County communities. The essay contest is designed for sixth, seventh and eighth graders and focuses on the importance of keeping schools safe from violence. The winning students are invited to a reception with their parents and teachers, and the students also receive certificates of achievement and U.S. Savings Bonds from the sheriff.

The purpose of the contest is to get middle school children thinking about safety and to help them develop an awareness of safety issues and potential dangers around them. The program also helps these students develop closer ties to law enforcement as they prepare to enter high school and become more independent.
