Hudson Valley Regional Envirothon
2010 Hundson Valley Regional Envirothon participantsThe District assists each year with the Hudson Valley Regional Envirothon which is held at Sharpe Reservation in Fishkill, NY.
The Hudson Valley Regional Envirothon is a hands-on environmental education competition where five-member teams of high school students from Columbia, Delaware, Dutchess, Greene, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Westchester counties work together in hopes of winning scholarships and awards.
The teams compete in five different environmental categories: soils/land use, aquatic ecology, forestry, wildlife, and a current environmental issue.
The primary goal of the Envirothon is to learn about the natural environment we live in so as to become stewards of the land. In preparation for the event students develop research skills, practice team building, and gain an appreciation for consensus decision-making.
There is no cost to the students, parents, or school to participate in the Envirothon. For more information about the program contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
