The Mid-Peninsula Water District hosted the 12 winners of its Annual Water Awareness Calendar Contest Jan. 24. This year’s calendar — which features winning student entries that promote water conservation — helps mark the MPWD’s 90th year anniversary. Local third, fourth, and fifth grade students from schools in the district’s service community were invited to submit posters incorporating the MPWD’s water conservation slogan, “If Everyone Saves a Little, We Can All Save a Lot!” An unprecedented 189 poster entries were received from Belmont Oaks Academy, Immaculate Heart of Mary School, Cipriani Elementary School, Nesbit Elementary School and San Carlos Charter Learning Center. The grand prize winner was Kaitlyn Mi, third-grade at Belmont Oaks Academy in Belmont; runners-up were Mia Masukawa, third-grade at Cipriani Elementary School in Belmont; Audrey R., fourth-grade, Nesbit Elementary School in Belmont.
The district also recognized Mrs. Butts and Ms. Stendal, who teach third-grade classes at Cipriani School, as the teachers with the most class participation this year.
