Winter weather is here again! We are in contact with the meteorologist we consult with and believe the snow will move out of our area around noon with warming temperatures. We are not planning for an early dismissal at this time, but will continue to monitor the weather.
Happy School Social Worker Week!
Angela, Susan, Shannon, and Hannah are the best! 💜

Mountain Community Health Partnership (MCHP) is excited to offer school-based dental services to students in Mitchell County Schools for the upcoming year. We will come to your child’s school to provide dental screenings, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants. During the visit, your child will meet one of our Public Health Dental Hygienist(s) who will screen your child’s mouth, teeth, gums, and discuss ways to improve oral health. They will also recommend a follow-up appointment with either MCHP or your child’s regular dentist or if needed, they’ll provide a dental specialist referral.
Your child does not have to be an MCHP patient in order to receive these services. Your child may also receive these services even if they already have a dentist, and records may be shared as desired. The goal of the school-based dental clinic is to provide fast, convenient preventive dentistry without the child or parent losing time at school or work. These services may be billed to your child’s dental insurance provider (including Medicaid or NC Health Choice) or paid out of pocket with discounts available to qualifying households through our sliding fee program. Questions regarding insurance coverage or our sliding fee program may be directed to the Bakersville Dental Center. Please keep in mind, you may be responsible for charges incurred if no insurance is provided.
If you want your child to be a part of this program, please fill out the form in the link below. We are excited to offer these much-needed services. If you have any question, please call MCHP Bakersville Dental Center at (828) 537-5991 or stop by the office at 89 N. Mitchell Ave, Bakersville, NC 28705.
