The SFDDA Annual Poster Contest Celebrating Children‛s Dental Health Month is Back! After a two-year hiatus because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Children’s Dental Health Month poster contest came back. Still, the awards breakfast, which usually takes place in February, was moved to May because of the covid variants that surged right after the new year. It was wonderful to see the children and their families attend the breakfast at Denny’s on Miracle Mile. We learned from the school representatives how much this means to the students and how they look forward to our poster contest. Well, it’s one of our favorite events too - even the staff at Denny’s was happy to have us back. We were happy to have Mr. Ray Jui, art teacher, and Ms. Shanna Patterson, the gifted program from Hialeah Elementary School, and Ms. Lissette Lutz and Ms. Linda Mangual of the Miami Dade County Public Schools Division of Academics, Visual and Performing Arts.
