Anderson Students Celebrate Dental Health Month

February is Dental Health month across Tennessee. Haywood County will have visits from Health Department or State of Tennessee Department of Dental Health in all schools to educate students about taking good care of their teeth to improve overall health. Coordinated School Health is partnering with them to get this done. Preschoolers at Anderson had a visit from “Tammie the Tooth Fairy” last week. They saw a really cool video about brushing, flossing, and going to the dentist. Kindergarteners met with “Miss Terry” who brought her dinosaur with his big mouth and big teeth to demonstrate tooth brushing. Everybody had fun doing all the activities. Every student got a new toothbrush! I don’t remember learning about my teeth being this much fun!
