Congrats to the Ephrata Middle School Students who successfully competed in the 2024 Lancaster County Middle School Envirothon held at the Lancaster County Conservation Park. Competing among five other school districts, Ephrata Middle School earned three out of the top five awards. #MountsPride #EASDLifeReady
Envirothon is an academic competition that focuses on Pennsylvania ecology and challenges students to collaborate and think critically. Students demonstrate their understanding of forestry, forest management, aquatics, and wildlife. Envirothon aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to educate others, inspire action in their local communities, and promote a lifelong commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability.
