Tippecanoe School Corporation
First Graders at Mintonye Celebrates National Children’s Dental Health Month
Kristy Delp

Students in Room 2 recently celebrated National Children’s Dental Health Month with a special visit from the Tippecanoe County Health Department. During the engaging presentation, students learned fun facts about their teeth and discovered important ways to keep them healthy and strong.

Each student received a dental health pouch filled with helpful supplies, including a new toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, and a two-minute timer to encourage proper brushing habits at home.

After the presentation, students reinforced what they learned by illustrating dental care tips and designing their own creative “cavity-fighting shields.”

A special thank-you to the community outreach program through the Tippecanoe County Health Department for making this informative and fun visit possible!
