Freshman Dental Alert
Alert for All Ninth Grade Parents
Dear Parents:
Legislation was passed by the State of Iowa, effective July 1, 2008, requiring all children entering Kindergarten, 9th-grade, and any students new to Iowa schools to have a dental screening. The purpose of the dental screening is to improve the oral health of Iowa’s children.
To comply with this new requirement your student must provide a certificate of dental screening to the Davenport Central High School’s nurse’s office.
