The Nebraska Envirothon is a competition designed for high school students (9-12th grades) to test their knowledge about the environment.

Contest Information

Five-member teams compete on the regional level in seven areas of environmental studies:

For the state competition, an oral presentation on a topic selected by the Canon Envirothon Committee is added to the testing stations.

Take Time to Organize & Coach a Team

More and more careers are being created that deal with the environment. This is an excellent opportunity to give your students some additional background in the environment and exposure to environmental careers.

Envirothon is Different from other Extra-Curricular Activities

The Nebraska Envirothon competition gives your students the opportunity to take what they have learned in the classroom and apply it to life. Students are given the chance to interact with resource professionals that use the knowledge they gained in high school and college every day in their careers. The Envirothon shows students the link between academics and the business world.
