In October, the New Haven Elementary School experienced what School Nurse, Karen Bean and EMT/Health Aide, Branda Korman are calling a "landmark" as students participated in their very first PSP event. Staff and volunteers worked very hard, but managed to screen and varnish approximately 200 children in less than three hours.
Two dentists from the area, Dr. Jackie Miller and Dr. Jenifer Moser, gave of their time to provide the dental screenings, while 10 parents from the community volunteered to provide help with the educational power points, dry brushing and fluoride varnish application.
After this very successful first event, New Haven Elementary School is already making its plans for their second event which will be held in the Spring, where the students will receive their second application of fluoride varnish for the school year.
