The Envirothon® is an environmental and natural resource conservation problem-solving, teambuilding, and leadership experience and competition for high school students (grades 9-12 or ages 14-19) across the United States, Canada, and China. Incorporating STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) principles, experiential learning, and hands-on outdoor field experiences, the Envirothon fosters student learning in the five subject areas of: Aquatics, Forestry, Soils, Wildlife, and a Current Environmental Issue, which changes annually. 

 

This Year's Current Issue is "TBD" 

 

The winning team from Nassau and Suffolk counties will move on to participate in the NYS Envirothon.

Additionally, each member of the winning team from Nassau and Suffolk County will receive a scholarship of $500! 

 

The Envirothon competition stimulates students’ interests in environmental concerns and motivates them to further develop their skills and grow into environmentally aware, action-oriented adults.

 

Envirothon activities begin locally, with teams of five 9th through 12th grade students competing for their Regional Envirothon title.

Teams consist of 5 students with 1 alternate, and schools may enter more than 1 team. Teams are required to have an advisor and pay the $75 registration fee, and each team member must submit a permission slip with their application. 

 

Breakfast and Lunch will be provided and are included in the registration fee.
