Hydrate 2nd Grade!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Troupe's classroom raised $300

This project is fully funded

My Project

My school is a title 1 school and we currently have over 800 students. My 2nd grade class has 26 kids that come from all different types of homes and families but many of those families struggle to make ends meet! This spring we will be taking 2 outdoor all day field trips and knowing North Carolina the temperatures can reach the high 80’s and 90’s. This leaves us needing hydration to keep our kids healthy and safe!

Last year when our grade level took this field trip we had several students show dehydration symptoms and we want to prevent that going into this year!
