Highways Maui District visited Waihe’e Elementary School on May 9th and 11th to present to all their fifth-grade students. Five classes of students met with our presenters to learn about stormwater runoff, potential sources of stormwater pollutants, and what we can do to prevent runoff contamination. After the presentation, each class tested their knowledge with a Kahoot quiz and broke into groups for a station rotation of hands-on activities. The station activities demonstrated pollutant movement through a watershed and involved an engineering exercise aimed at designing stormwater solutions.
