Envirothon

The Envirothon is a high-school event involving teams that compete in five environmental topics: Aquatics, Forestry, Soils, Current Issues, and Wildlife. Here at the District, we hold a series of workshops each Spring to help prepare team members with exam topics. Each team member receives a certificate of participation, a t-shirt, and the benefit of developing a higher level of environmental awareness. Contact Karen Ervay with questions about participating in next years Envirothon!

The 2011 Monroe County Envirothon was held at the Rochester Institute of Technology on April 29th. Students competed in five different catagories: soils, aquatics, forestry, wildlife, estuaries (this year's current issue topic). New this year to the competition was the addition of an oral presentation on the current issue topic. Participating high schools included: Brighton High School, Brockport High School, Churchville-Chili High School, Eastridge High School, Northeast College Preperatory High School and Our Lady of Mercy High School. The winning team overall was Churchville-Chili High School Team #2.
