Troll alert. Any school that would deny water is up for lawsuits.

Don't be concerned about it- this is an outlier, every school I know encourages students to bring in a water bottle during the hot weeks in the fall and the "spring". In ES, some students have them throughout the year.


Even elementary? This is an elementary school. In the lower grades they have fountains in the classrooms - they just don't let the kids use it.

Tell me what the girl was doing when she passed out, and I'll tell you if it's the same school.

Trust me, if you check Greatschools there are plenty of warnings about our school.

It is not common and complain to Garza (the Superintendent) and the Assistant Superintendent in your school's region. (which is very easy to find on the FCPS.edu website)

I didn't say YOU were telling whoppers, I said your kid was and you believed them.

Call a news station if it's this bad. Seriously. If you yourself saw with your eyes kids being denied water and passing out, get it out to the news.

Then use the teacher's phone. Cell phone coverage is spotty in many schools.

2. I would provide the school (the principal and teacher) with a note from my child's pediatrician saying they are to have access to water and bathrooms AS THE CHILD DEEMS NECESSARY.
