Parents, any student entering second, seventh and twelfth grades are required to show proof of a dental and HealthCheck/comprehensive health examination prior to entry into school this coming fall. Students in seventh and twelfth grade are also required to have the Tdap and meningitis shots to enter. Unvaccinated students can legally not attend school. Please make an appointment with your child’s Doctor and Dentist to make sure they have completed the requirements and provide proof to the school. If your student has had a dental or physical exam within 1 year of the new school year, a copy of that can be brought to school. For more information, please contact your child’s school nurse or see the county webpage “school nurse tab” for more information.

Hello, this is an important message about the upcoming MOVHD Mobile Dental Clinic. This clinic will provide services such as screening, cleaning, fluoride treatment, and if determined, sealants, X-rays, and silver diamine fluorine (SDF). The clinic will be held at St. Marys Elementary School on April 30 and May 01, 2024, and at Belmont Elementary School on May 07 and May 09, 2024, during school hours. This service is open to students who do not have a dentist, have not been to a dentist in more than a year, are under-insured, or do not have dental insurance. MOVHD will bill Medicaid and private insurance. A sliding scale will be offered to students without dental insurance. No student will be denied services due to the inability to pay. Please request an application form from your school nurse by returning the form that was being sent home with your student this week or by calling your school nurse. Applications for dental services need to be received on or before Thursday, April 18. Students will be granted an appointment on a first-come, first-serve basis. There are still a lot of spots open, so please sign up. Thank you.

Congratulations Kendall and Rayleigh!
