First Envirothon Team in Shawnee County, Kansas

Placing 8 out of 18, the Washburn Rural High School Environmental Club competed in the April 12, 2017 Regional Envirothon at Red Rock Ranch in Soldier, Kansas.
Thank you to their teacher, Allison Bunck! Click on the link below for more information on Envirothon in Kansas: www.kacdnet.org/kansasenvirothon/. |

The students did very well considering their non-agriculture backgrounds. Currently, W.R.H.S. mostly consists of students from urban or sub-urban homes.
These 5 are so competitive, they are eager to come back next year and win. |
