Since 2012
GET WET! is a program where high school students sample, test, and report drinking water quality to the communities in which they reside. It began in the winter of 2003 and is now in 7 states and has affected tens of thousands of private well owners. Below is the final powerpoint that my Oxbridge Academy students put together along with Jupiter High School, Seminole Ridge High School, and Hidden Oaks Middle School students in order to educate their communities to the need for source water management.
