Students and teachers, grades 9-12, are invited to
participate in the 17th annual High School Conference on
the Environment. The
Wisconsin Center for Environmental Education at
UW-Stevens Point is proud to host this leadership
skill-building opportunity.
Each school may send
up to eight
students to the conference. Participants serve as
"ambassadors" from their school and are expected to
bring a poster exhibit to share. Teachers are encouraged
to recruit students who have an active interest in the
environment and who show leadership potential.
Individual students or non school-based groups are also
encouraged to participate. It is expected that all
participants will remain at the conference for the
entire program.
All participating groups
are expected to meet the
Conference Preparation Requirements which include
completing a pre-assignment and creating a poster to
bring to the event.
The cost of the conference, which
includes lunch, is $15 per person if postmarked on or
before October 1, 2008 and $20 per person if postmarked
after October 1, 2008. Groups have been turned away due
to high demand in the past. Registration will be
processed on a first-come, first-served basis.
The
final deadline for conference registration is October
15, 2008.
Transportation support and
substitute
teacher reimbursement are available to a limited number
of groups so register early if you would like to be
considered for these opportunities.
