Dental Permission forms were sent home at the beginning of the school year. Parents may also sign up their children online at https://www.myschooldentist.com/Default.aspx
We must have a permission form completed in order for your child to be seen by the in-school dentist. Permission forms will be accepted up to the day before the visit on January 30th, 2019.
