Wapello Elementary was awarded a grant in the spring of 2018 to replace an old drinking fountain with a new fountain that is equipped with a bottle filling station. This grant was provided through Delta Dental of Iowa and is intended to help students Rethink Your Drink and choose water over drinks containing high amounts of sugar. The Wapello Community School District would like to thank Delta Dental of Iowa for selecting Wapello Elementary as a recipient of this grant. The fountain was installed on Thursday and will be a great addition to Wapello Elementary.
Anyone else think they could be twins?
