This year, the AP Environmental Science and 8th grade STEM classes at CES took a deep dive into the global water crisis. Through powerful images, documentaries, and class discussions, students young and old gained a better understanding of the struggles millions face in accessing clean water. They learned about the extreme challenges families endure, like walking miles just to collect water, the serious health risks of drinking contaminated water, and the widespread environmental and social effects of water scarcity. Motivated by these harsh realities, students felt compelled to take action. They decided to raise awareness and support a water delivery project for the Navajo Nation for this year’s Water Walk. Many Navajo communities still lack running water, and this project will help provide them with a clean and reliable source. By walking in solidarity with those who experience water insecurity, students hope to not only shed light on this important issue but also raise funds to make a real difference. Through learning, compassion, and action, these students and teachers are proving that even small efforts can create lasting change.
