ENVIROTHON

The Envirothon is an environmental science competition held in the spring for all Delaware schools.  Students participate in an integrated exploration of five natural resource areas:  aquatic ecology, forestry, land use, wildlife and renewable energy.  Students test their creativity, critical thinking and team work by solving problems in a competitive format.  Teams work in the field at rotating testing stations answering questions, solving problems and presenting researched material.  During the competition, students work with experts and specialists who help to further their knowledge of the subject. 

The group meets about during Activity Period and more frequently when needed.
