Keeping children and teens healthy and safe is always a top priority. Whether you are a parent, youth sports coach, school coach, school professional, or health care provider, the information contained on the CDC site will help you recognize, respond to, and minimize the risk of concussion or other serious brain injury. Information includes helmet recommendations for sports helmets, resource materials and informational videos about head injuries and how to prevent them.
There are also free APPS to download for children, one being Rocket Blades: The Brain Safety Game.
Fluoride Rinse Program
The Stoughton Public Schools has an opportunity to participate in the Weekly Fluoride Rinse Program. The program is coordinated and funded by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health Office of Oral Health. Each elementary school nurse is trained for this program and it will be offered to one grade level yearly. The grade level chosen is arranged by each individual school nurse, with notices sent at the beginning of the school year.
Please contact your school nurse for more information on this program.
