Refreshed Minds, Bodies, and Souls

Help me give my students a way to stay refreshed throughout the day with water bottles.

My Students

My students are creative, intuitive, and are curious about life! They come from low income, high poverty homes. They face and overcome numerous challenges every day. I want to create a learning environment that shows these students that they are appreciated and loved. They thrive when they can participate in hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically.

My Project

Water fountains around the school are all unavailable to everyone to drink from due to COVID-19. Therefore, the students don't have access to them. However they are able to fill up water bottles and cups to drink from. While that is awesome, I provide students with unlimited small cups to fill up. However, a tremendous amounts of trash is being created, and spills are happening frequently! A refillable water bottle will also reduce the amount of trash created with the use of small paper cups and there help teach students about being eco-friendly and helping the environment. In addition, with these water bottles, students will not miss instruction to take a water break. With these water bottles, my students are sure to be hydrated and focused!
