[quote=Anonymous]What does DCPS propose that Wilson do with the 2,000 disposable bottles that will now be trashed at school every day? (Few will be recycled.) FYI: no, 2,000 students can't all fill up reusable water bottles every morning upon arriving at Wilson. The flow at the handful of water fountains doesn't rise high enough to fill a bottle (I tried at back-to-school night), and the bathroom sinks are all marked "do not drink" because the water is unfiltered and a possible lead hazard. Plus, the hallways are so crowded that students can't stop to open their lockers between classes, let alone stand in line at a water fountain. WHAT ENORMOUS PROBLEM IS THIS DRASTIC PLAN ATTEMPTING TO SOLVE? The problem--present at every high school in America--of a small handful of miscreants smuggling vodka in to school once a year? Has our interim chancellor ever visited Wilson during the school day?[/quote]
