Through the Water-Wise School Education Kits Program, kits are distributed to 5th grade students that enable them to install water saving devices and perform a water audit in their home. Included with the kit is a curriculum for the teacher. The water conservation curriculum that can be easily implemented by teachers, easily understood and taken back into the home by the students, and includes methods to quantify the water savings as a result of taking the actions in the curriculum. 

The kits are typically taken home by the students, who may share the learning experience with their family members. The energy and water efficient devices contained in the kits are installed in the home and the family is able to calculate the water savings resulting from each device. Essentially the kit allows the student to perform in-home water audit. The kit includes:

• Energy and Water Saving High-Efficiency Showerhead
• Kitchen Aerator
• Flip Control Bathroom Aerator
• Energy Cost Calculator
• Mini-Tape Measure
• Flow Rate Test Bag
• Multi-Function Drop / Rain Gauge
• Water Temperature Check Card
