Link:  School Water Fountains in NYT

School water fountains, even the very latest models, rarely meet the all-important taste test. Kids and teachers avoid them.  Moms pack bottled water instead; thousands of disposable plastic bottles are dispersed daily for snack, for lunch, for sports. Staff rooms receive frequent visits from the bottled water companies. Money, fuel, plastic, water -- all wasted on a massive scale.

Green My Locker is happy to offer the Pure1 Absolute 1 filtration system for school water fountains.  Screening out impurities down to .05 microns with patented two-stage filters, the Pure1 system pumps out clean and great-tasting water from any school water fountain.  Further adapt your fountains with a J-faucet for bottle-filling and kids can bring their own reusable bottle from home.
