Kansas State Statute 72‐6251 requires all students enrolled in Kansas schools receive a free dental screening each year. In accordance with this, GraceMed will be providing this service at our schools.
Oral health is an important part of children’s overall health and is a critical component in the child’s ability to learn and succeed in school. This screening does not replace the exam provided by your dentist.
If you wish to opt out of the screening, please contact D'ana Heinlein, USD 309 District Nurse.
Although passive consent is implied if your school nurse is not contacted, as a parent, you have options concerning your child’s dental health. At a minimum, screening is always recommended and does not replace an exam provided by a dentist.
A copy of the screening results will be sent home with the child.
If you wish to sign up for expanded care (cleaning, fluoride varnish, sealants) please fill out the information with the link provided. A report will go home with the student on any expanded care received. No sign-up is needed for screenings only.
