Kincheloe Elementary

The first grade at Kincheloe Elementary received a grant from MEC (Midwest Energy & Communications) to purchase a subscription for Generation Genius, a science and math program with videos, lesson plans and activities. Since we were in the middle of the school year, the subscription was prorated and we were able to purchase the program for both classrooms, as well as flashlights for a science lesson on light. We love the program, and the students look forward to the videos and lessons!

Kincheloe Elementary School is excited to announce that the Van Buren Cass District Health Department will be offering a great opportunity for our students. Beginning Monday February 14th, 2022, the health department dental hygienist will be at Kincheloe offering a program to help stop tooth decay. The SEAL Michigan Dental Sealant Program will be coming to place dental sealants on permanent six-year and twelve-year molars at NO COST!!! If your child has dental insurance it will be billed and any amount not covered by your insurance will be covered by this program. Please check with your dental insurance as many plans do not cover the cost of dental sealants. If your child does not have dental insurance there will be NO cost. Your child received informational paperwork along with the necessary paperwork to be completed. If you are interested in taking advantage of this opportunity please complete the necessary form and send it back to the school as soon as possible and we will take care of everything from there. If your child did not bring home the paperwork the information will be in the main office or contact our School Nurse, Suzanne Dorman RN, MSN at sdorman@dowagiacschools.org or 269-782-4440 ext. 1129. We hope that you take advantage of this great opportunity available to our students.
