Get involved to win recognition and prizes, and a chance to participate in the North American Canon competition!
The mission of Alaska Envirothon is to increase students’ knowledge of natural resource issues and ecological sustainability principles through practical studies in their own communities.
Advisors are teachers or adult mentors who coordinate local Envirothon study groups. An Advisor is responsible for promoting the Envirothon program, recruiting students to participate, and ensuring team members complete learning activities, curricula, registration forms and anything else necessary to prepare the group for competition.
Five-member teams from various schools around the state complete training throughout the school year in five natural resource categories: (1)Soils and Land Use, (2)Aquatic Ecology, (3)Forestry, (4)Wildlife, and a rotating current issue: (5)Nonpoint Source Pollution and Low Impact Development.
