🦷 Big Smiles and Big Impact for Our Students!

This year, the Northeast Missouri Health Council Mobile Dental Unit rolled onto campus and made a huge difference for Putnam County students and families.

Because the dental team brought services directly to our school, students were able to receive care without missing valuable instructional time, and families didn’t have to worry about traveling to appointments.

Here’s what that impact looked like during the 2025–2026 school year:

153 students served

254 total visits

108 fillings completed

10 extractions

106 protective sealants applied

Those numbers represent healthier smiles, fewer missed classes, and one more way our community works together to support student success.

A big thank you to Nurse Stephanie Gillum for coordinating this effort and to the incredible team from the Northeast Missouri Health Council Mobile Dental Unit for taking such great care of our students.

We appreciate the partnership that helps keep our kids healthy and ready to learn. #CommunityCollaboration
