The Ramsey High School Environmental Club recently received an Environmental Awareness Challenge Grant from the Bergen County Utilities Authority in recognition of the high school's recycling efforts.
The funds will be used to offset part of the cost of a water bottle refilling station, according to reps from the school.
The water bottle refilling station encourages students to refill their plastic water bottles and reduces the amount of plastic that needs to be recycled.
