Oral health is vital for overall well-being, affecting both physical and mental health. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups prevent cavities and gum disease. A healthy mouth supports better nutrition and boosts self-esteem. Educating kids about oral care sets the stage for a lifetime of healthy smiles! 😁✨ #OralHealth #HealthySmiles Check out this the video on Cavity and Oral Health from Healthy Schools Oklahoma: https://youtu.be/AfltKjgCFHU?si=1EpO2qO-pBTGHgzd

Thank you all so much for giving to our food drive last week! The food collected will go directly back to families in our schools for holiday meal baskets. We collected 750 items for our food drive this year. Our winning class with the most items collected of 122 items was Ms. Franco's kindergarten class, and they got to celebrate with a popsicle party! Again, your continued support of our school and our students is such a blessing. #dragonCARES

We want to express a sincere THANK YOU to all of our donors that will make it possible to provide 55 Purcell Schools families with a Thanksgiving food basket. Some donors gave food and some donated gift cards or gave a $$ donation. The support from our community along with school food drives has been such a blessing. We could not do it without all of you!

🇺🇸❤️ Today in PE, students learned all about what it means to be a Veteran and discovered the different branches of military service! Mrs. Wilkins planned fun, hands-on activities that helped students not only learn about Veterans but also work together as a team—just like our service members do! 💪🇺🇸 We are so proud of our Little Dragons for showing teamwork, respect, and appreciation for those who have served our country! ❤️🤍💙
