The Envirothon
If you have a group of
high school aged students that are interested in the environment,
then be sure to read on about the annual Envirothon competition!
This competition tests student’s knowledge about five separate areas
of the environment: soils, forestry, wildlife, aquatic biology,
and a current environmental issue. Preparing for the competition
often involves contact with professionals in environmental fields.
Topics can be worked into most science curriculums, so that
preparation for the event can be an integrated part of the school
year. If a team does well at the local competition, there is an
opportunity to move onto the state level, and even to the national
level, where teams compete for scholarship money. If you are
interested in entering a team, please call the district at (330)
929-2871 to request an entry form. Check out this website for more
information.
