February is National Children’s Dental Health Month — and we’re all smiles at Hill City!

Our kindergartners had a terrific time learning about healthy dental habits with Dr. Pryor today. From brushing and flossing to keeping those pearly whites sparkling clean, it was a hands-on, fun-filled presentation that had everyone grinning from ear to ear!

A big THANK YOU to Dr. Pryor for helping our students build bright smiles and healthy habits!

Students in Mrs. Moss’ 4th grade math class played Sums of One Memory Game. The goal of the game is to make a pair (one from the tenths pile and one from the hundredths pile) that have a sum of one whole. Mrs. Moss’ students love it when she picks the partners! 😉
