What is Envirothon?

Envirothon is a program for high school students to learn more about our natural environment. The spirit of competition motivates athletes, drives successful businesses and stimulates new ideas.

Envirothon tests the student's knowledge on topics such as:

• Soils

• Water resources

• Forestry

• Wildlife

• Current environmental issues.

Each year there is a statewide competition!

The 2025 SC Envirothon Season will kick off with a Coaches Training on Saturday, February 1, 2025.
