The Envirothon is America's leading natural resource education program for high school students. Teams comprised of five students represent their school or organization in a statewide competition testing their knowledge of: aquatics, forestry, soils, wildlife, and current environmental issues.

The Massachusetts Envirothon stresses the interdependence of various natural resources within the environment, emphasizes hands-on, team-oriented problem solving and community involvement. There are opportunities throughout the year to receive resource materials for use in the classroom, to attend workshops geared to both teachers and students, and catch to environmental professionals in action.

Changes at Mass Envirothon Watch this space in September for news about changes for the 2010 Envirothon program.  Debi Hogan, our skilled and dedicated program coordinator since the 1996 Envirothon, has left this key position.  We wish her well!  We have changes in our committee membership as well.  We are working to continue to offer the high quality program you have known in recent years.  We expect that there will be some changes as we adapt and make best use of the resources we have available.  Thanks for your patience!  If you have questions or concerns, contact Will Snyder, UMass Extension, at wsnyder@umext.umass.edu.
