Good Afternoon Topsail Annandale Elementary Families! This is Mrs. Wilson with your weekly update. Did you know that healthy teeth are important for your child’s overall health and learning? The North Carolina Oral Health Section will conduct dental screenings for children in Kindergarten during the 2022-2023 school year. The dental screenings will be completed by a licensed public health dental hygienist with the Oral Health Section on Tuesday 11/8. The hygienist will use gloves and a flashlight during the screening. The data we collect is used to improve oral health programs for children and youth in your county. The dental screening is also a positive experience that provides your child the opportunity to learn about good dental care, even if your child sees a dentist regularly. Please send a note to Nurse Vicki if you do not wish for your child to participate. Families, we ask your help with the following two bus safety rules: For over 30 years, the Community Holiday Assistance Program has served Eastern Pender County families during the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays. Families receive a coupon for a fully cooked Thanksgiving meal from Harris Teeter. At Christmas, families receive a gift card to a local grocery store and toys for their children through the free “Toy Shop” program. The program serves ages newborn to 18 (all school age children). If your family is in need of holiday assistance, please complete the online referral form, linked below. If you have any questions, or need assistance completing the form, please contact Dr. Lori Brown, School Counselor at TAES. Here is the link to our school’s referral form. https://forms.gle/AkGofy Important Dates: Mon. 11/7- Make-up Picture Day! Tues. 11/8- Kindergarten Dental Screenings.
