Water Testing
Water for Poway Unified schools is provided by the City of Poway, the City of San Diego, and Olivenhain Municipal Water District. As water providers, they are required to comply with state and federal regulations and, as such, conduct numerous water quality tests and produce related reports. The standards of quality for the water they provide are extremely high.
The water agencies that service all of our schools have not detected lead in their annual water quality reports. The testing we are requesting at our school sites is in addition to regular testing conducted annually by our water agencies.
