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 2024 SC Envirothon Season will kick off with Coaches Training on Saturday, February 3, 2024 in Columbia, SC at the Sandhill Research and Education Center. This is a free training that will include what to expect competition day, the current topic scenario, and potential exam materials. Coaches are not obligated to bring a team if attending this training! Registration is required for this workshop.
