​The Fred B. Miller, Jr. Regional Envirothon, hosted by the Duval Soil & Water Conservation District, is a problem-solving, natural resource education program for high school students. This annual competition is a field-oriented program in which student teams learn to use critical thinking skills to answer written questions or conduct hands-on investigations about environmental issues.

The program focuses on five areas of study: AQUATICS, FORESTRY, SOILS, WILDLIFE, and CURRENT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. This year the current environmental issue will focus on ​Adapting to a Changing Climate. Winners of the regional competition are sent to the Florida Envirothon. Additionally, an oral presentation will be required at the state level (more information is linked in the PDF at the bottom of the page).

“It's so important that we offer students a comprehensive study of our land, water, wildlife, and current issues while in high school. With the Envirothon competition, kids are competing for a trophy and they get to learn outside. We hope that every high school in Duval County will send a team to the Envirothon”, says Jennifer Casey, former Chairperson for the Duval Soil and Water Conservation District.
