East Knox families, we will be having a dental clinic at the school on April 23rd and 24th through the school smiles program. This on-site dental group will provide dental care at our school for students that sign up to participate. A dental team will be set up inside our school to see students for dental cleanings. They accept Medicaid, private insurance, offer self-pay rates and grants through their foundation. Register your student by visiting this link: https://schoolsmiles.com/student-signup/  Register by April 16th. If your child was seen at the clinic in the fall, you do not need to sign up again. Any questions, please call your building nurse.

Each student will have at least one artwork on display.  Art spirit week will be the same week celebrating the art show. 

Parents and guardians of East Knox students, please read the letter from Knox Public Health regarding the measles outbreak in Knox County.  At this time, there are no known cases of measles in the East Knox school district. Please contact your building nurse with any questions.
