My Project
Students often come to my class and ask for bottles of water. Not having operable water fountains has proven to be an extraordinary inconvenience for students. I often share bottles of water and drink pouches with our students, because many students do not have money to purchase drinks from the vending machines.
Help me to make sure that my new students or any student in need of water will have water or a healthy drink to stay hydrated.
Some students are on campus the entire day without anything to drink. Students need water to stay hydrated and have enough energy to focus on our lessons. I'm grateful that students feel comfortable enough to ask me for something to drink.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
