Catalayah’s 5th graders had an insightful visit from Mr. Vaughn with the City of Claremore’s Storm Water Department!🌧 He shared how stormwater—runoff from rain and snow that flows over surfaces like streets and parking lots—can pick up pollutants such as trash, oils, and chemicals, impacting our rivers, lakes, and water supply. We can protect our environment and wildlife by managing stormwater and reducing these pollutants! 🌍🐟 Let’s work together for a cleaner, healthier future!🦓❤ #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
