Encouraging Conservation Through Education
Rowland Water District's education program was developed to reach students from elementary schools through high schools. Since the start of the education program in November 2012, the District has reached over 2,000 students with classroom presentations.
Since August 2013, 59 classes from pre-k to fifth grade have participated in fun, hands-on activities such as the water cycle bracelet, states of water, water conservation BINGO, and tap water challenge.
Along with classroom presentations, students are urged to take the "Water Drop Pledge," where they promise to conserve our earth's natural resources. After signing the pledge, a "Star Water Saver" letter is sent to each student.
The District is committed to making these educational programs available to all schools in our service area. Educating our students is key to achieving our water conservation and educational goals and encourages them to become environmentally responsible citizens.
