About:
Long Beach High School’s National Honor Society members volunteered at the Nassau County Dental Society’s annual “Give Kids a Smile” day, held at the Cradle of Aviation Museum on March 9. This event is part of a national campaign to provide underprivileged children with free dental assessments, as well as a day of fun activities to teach good dental practices and promote a lifetime of positive dental experiences.
Activities included a puppet show, an educational movie in theĀ planetarium, a walk through the Cradle of Aviation Museum and the Firefighters Museum and a ride on Nunley’s Carousel. In addition, the children received dental exams and fluoride treatments from dentistal professionals. The Long Beach NHS students were thrilled to be able to participate in making this day exciting and informative for the young children who attended.
