Over winter break, maintenance installed two new water bottle fillers in the 900 buildings over the already existing water fountains. These were put in in order to be up to par with the other filtration standards with water on campus, according to RHS daytime custodian Jonathan Tanner.

Tanner sees the new water bottle as a good investment for water filtration.

“They’re putting [water bottle fillers] all throughout the district,” Tanner said. “It’s cleaner water for all the kids and it’s up-to-date regulated water.”

Junior Jase Giorgi actively uses water fountains and believes everyone benefits from the addition to the water fountains.

“With this new technology, you can fill up your water bottle all the way, unlike before.” Giorgi said.
