The Annual MHS Blood Drive is happening today. Students who have signed up recently as well as staff are donating.
Recently three students from Mena High School got an exclusive chance to step into the shoes of dental hygiene professionals at Dr. Borengasser Family Dental in Fort Smith Arkansas!
From learning the ropes of oral care to witnessing firsthand the magic of dental cleaning procedures, these students dove deep into the world of dental hygiene! But the adventure didn't end there! After their enriching experience, they embarked on a tour of the University of Arkansas Fort Smith's campus, paving the way for future possibilities!
A special thanks goes out to Dr. Borengasser and his team at Borengasser Family Dental and the University of Arkansas Fort Smith for making this possible.
