All K-12 schools across the state now have the opportunity to get their water checked for lead by their water department. It’s a push by the State Water Resources Control Board to make sure all California schools have access to safe drinking water. “Everybody saw what happened back east. I think that’s where a lot of the concerns are, but we have a lot of things in place from preventing any of that from happening to us,” said Mike Mares, District Manager with California Water Services.
