Delaware Envirothon

2026 Envirothon winner is....

Odessa High School’s FFA and Agriscience team celebrated earning first place in the 2026 Delaware Envirothon Championship, held at Sussex Academy — marking their second consecutive win. 🌿

Now in its milestone 30th year, Envirothon is a statewide environmental education competition sponsored by DNREC. This year, nine high schools and one 4-H club fielded a record 23 teams that spent the school year preparing to test their knowledge of aquatic ecology, soils and land use, wildlife, forestry and the current environmental issue of nonpoint source pollution mitigation.

After more than three hours of testing, the Odessa team was crowned state champion and will represent Delaware at the National Conservation Foundation International Envirothon in Mississippi this July.
