When school is not in session, school-based dental sealant programs may continue to operate at sites where programs for children are located, such as child-care centers, Boys and Girls Clubs, or faith-based programs. To operate at such sites, school-based dental sealant program administrators need to establish relationships with administrators of these programs.
Staff can also use school breaks to complete administrative activities, arrange introduction and planning appointments with school staff, meet with community partners, order and organize supplies, manage and maintain equipment, work on program-evaluation activities, and complete continuing-education requirements.
