Collaborative Success: Advancing Water Safety Education

Every Child A Swimmer (ECAS), Aquatics & Education, LLC., and the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation are proud to present this report detailing the incredible success of our collaborative water safety education program. Through this partnership, and in coordination with Brevard Public Schools in the State of Florida, we reached over 10,000 students, providing critical water safety education and emergency preparedness training.

Through whole-group instruction and experiential learning opportunities, students gained essential knowledge on drowning prevention, water safety best practices, and emergency response strategies. The overwhelmingly positive response from students, teachers, and school administrators underscores the need for continued and expanded programming in the future.

Year-Round Commitment to Safety and Learning This collaborative effort is dedicated to promoting safety and learning year-round in the State of Florida. Each grade-level presentation is carefully designed to be age-appropriate and engaging, ensuring students receive valuable and relevant water safety education tailored to their developmental stage.

Interagency Collaboration & Community Impact Collaboration has been central to the program’s success. ECAS, Aquatics & Education, LLC., and the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation worked closely with local fire departments to deliver these presentations, enriching the curriculum with their expertise. This partnership provided students with a broader understanding of first responders’ critical roles, highlighting that firefighters serve not only as fire responders but also as primary emergency medical professionals.

The program’s focus on water safety education, drowning prevention awareness, and emergency response training is essential for equipping youth with life-saving skills. By fostering interagency cooperation and community engagement, we aim to continue expanding the reach and impact of this vital initiative.

Program Implementation & Future Goals The implementation of this water safety education program marks a groundbreaking step toward drowning prevention in the State of Florida. Moving forward, ECAS, Aquatics & Education, LLC., and the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation remain committed to expanding this initiative, enhancing curriculum offerings, and securing additional partnerships to ensure every child has access to essential water safety education.
