PTSA SUSTAINABILITY AT WORK!


Friday we celebrated the final step of our 3 year Water Filling Station project. The idea of adding additional water filling station to help reducing plastics at RHS was presented to PTSA by then freshman student, Mandira Ganti. Since then our Sustainability team worked to raise money and collaborate with outside agencies to procure additional funding that would pay for one additional filling station. Little did we know we would collect enough funds to provide for two! RHS now has a total of four filling stations spread out throughout the school.


I would like to thank Mike Brent of Cascade Water Alliance who was instrumental in making this project come to light by providing funds and 2300 water bottles to RHS. Wednesday during homeroom, each student was given the opportunity to take a pledge to help reduce plastic at RHS by using a water bottle. After taking the pledge they were given a water bottle. Additional water bottles will be given to Teachers during Staff Appreciation week.

A big Thank You to our PTSA Community for providing $4500.00 raised during the 2019 Holiday Bazaar. We couldn’t have done the project without a grant from The Department of Ecology for $5000.00. And THANK YOU to Cascade Water Alliance who provided water bottles and $2500.00.  


The celebration concluded with an official ribbon cutting ceremony. In attendance were Redmond Mayor Angela Birney, LWSD Associate Superintendent Barbara Posthumus, Principal Jill Vandeveer, Mandira Ganti, now a senior, along with Cascade Water Alliance, Brian Buck LWSD Director of Support Services and RHS Board members Roo Hall and Elizabeth Christian. 


Thank you again RHS PTSA Community for your continued support.
