Ready, Set, Smile!

This summer, we collaborated with Ready, Set, Smile, an organization who prepares and empowers all children in the community to care for their oral health through education and preventive services. Their trained community health workers came to our classroom to do an education about oral health with our children. They provided a 15-minute interactive presentation for all the children in the classroom featuring age-appropriate education, tooth brushing models, and take-home hygiene kits for every child. Then their dentist did a dental screening and cleaning. They also followed up with the parents after their visit. For more information, check out their website: readysetsmile.org
