Water Safety in Schools

Free, ready-to-use classroom lessons to teach kids how to stay safe around water.

Drowning is a leading cause of accidental death for children. Georgia Law already requires school to provide information to parents. -- But most don't have the tools.

What’s Inside the School Packs

Each grade band has a ready-to-use mini toolkit with:

  • 1-Page Teacher Script (step-by-step lesson, ~20 min)
  • Student Activity (coloring sheet for younger, reflection/journal for older)
  • Take-Home Parent Flyer (same 5 rules, simplified for families)
  • Classroom Slide Deck (visual cues + prompts)
  • Optional Teacher Explainer Video (1–2 min orientation, one video can cover all levels)
