Dear Parent or Guardian:
Great News! Our school is partnering with Smile New York Outreach to offer in-school dental care!

Safety First!

Children will be treated by our licensed, highly trained staff in our portable clinic that meets all CDC and Department of Health guidelines.

Children will receive a:
• Dental exam
• Cleaning
• X-rays
• Sealants, as needed, to prevent cavities
• Silver diamine fluoride (SDF), as needed on back teeth to treat decay and make teeth less sensitive. (It is normal for SDF to turn brown decay darker as it is working. Healthy areas of teeth will not change color)
• All children will leave with a dental report card and a toothbrush

No Cost to You

IMPORTANT – We are required to bill insurance for care, so please provide dental insurance information if you have it. But, you will never receive a bill or request for any payment from Smile NY. All children are seen, even if they don’t have insurance.

Safe, Easy & Convenient

Having your child seen by the in-school dentist saves you valuable time. Top quality care is provided by local, New York licensed professionals right in the familiar surroundings of your child’s school.

Once your child returns a signed consent, it is good for as long as your child attends this school. We will call you in advance of an in-school dental clinic.

Keep Your Child Healthy
By having your child see the in-school dentist, you can help reduce the risk of:
Pain and Suffering
Absence from School
Unnecessary Loss of Teeth
Impaired Speech Development

School Meals
Students attending school in person will be offered free breakfast and lunch daily in school. Please get in touch with your school for more information on meal times and locations.

Support School Funding
You do not need to apply for your child to receive meals. However, we do ask families to complete the Family Income Inquiry Form, which helps schools receive money for their programs. Your school will send a copy of this form home with your child, or you can get it from your school’s main office.

Information for Familieshttps://www.schools.nyc.gov/school-life/transportation/transportation-overviewTransportation

1. Bus Companies Potentially Affected: If a strike occurs, the following bus companies might be affected. Families can see which company operates their bus route via their NYCSA account or by talking with the transportation coordinator at their school:

• ALL AMERICAN SCHOOL BUS CORP. (AM)

• BOBBY'S BUS CO. INC. (BB)

• BORO TRANSIT, INC. (BO)

• G.V.C. LTD. (GC)

• GRANDPA'S BUS CO., INC. (GB)

2. Impact on School Operations:

• Schools will remain open even if a strike occurs.

• We believe a potential strike may involve about half of our bus drivers and attendants.

• Affected routes will be displayed on the designated webpage the week of August 28.

3. Communication with Parents: Parents will receive notifications through calls, emails, and text messages if their child's route is affected. Please encourage parents to keep their contact information updated in their NYC Schools Account (NYCSA).

4. Alternative Transportation:

• Schools can provide emergency MetroCards for affected students and their guardians.

• Pre-paid rideshare services and transportation reimbursement will be available for eligible students (e.g., those with specific IEPs or 504 accommodations, students in temporary housing or foster care).

• Students affected by a bus strike will be excused for up to two hours of lateness.

5. Virtual Learning: NYC Public Schools will not offer virtual learning for students impacted by the strike. Alternative transportation options should be used.

6. Duration of Potential Strike: The duration of a strike, if it occurs, is unpredictable. Updates will be shared with families as we learn more.

7. Safety Measures: NYC Public Schools are collaborating with the NYPD to ensure the safety of students using public transportation and walking to school in case of a strike.

8. Field Trips and After-School Programs: Updates related to field trips and after-school programs will be shared as the situation evolves.
