It depends on a number of things. It is clean and non-polluting, but ask yourself first:
-Is there any particular group or individual who is pushing the idea and would stand to benefit from it?
(eg on the School Council, Board of Management, real estate agents, political and environmental issues )
-What about caveats on the land and legal encumbrances etc
-When is it to be used?
-What purpose/s ?
-Why
Is it to be the sole power source for the school or not?
-If it is, is the water supply constant and utterly reliable, or is it intermittent?
(eg Things like drought, global warming and climate change, upstream irrigators, development projects, towns and housing estates etc)
If it is not to be the sole power source:-
-Is it for back-up, (either now or in the future)?
-Is it for self-promotion or publicity
-Is it for actual educational purposes?
(eg showing how to generate electricity, science projects etc)

Water power is used to produce electricity - all homes schools and businesses use electricity so hydro power is just part of this. If you mean direct water power using your own water wheel to drive some mechanism, this is rather old fashioned. Millers used to do this, but surely no-one still does this? I don't see any relevance to homes and schools, what would they do with a mechanical water wheel?
