Earth Heroes at School

The Earth Heroes at School Program celebrates King County students, teachers, staff, and volunteers who implement projects at their school or beyond to protect our environment. Is someone at your school an outstanding advocate for conserving natural resources? Do you have a school program that reduces your school's impact on our environment? If so, nominate them for an Earth Heroes at School award!

Winners are honored each year at a reception featuring entertainment, refreshments, and presentation of awards. The 2009 awards were presented by King County Council Chair Dow Constantine. View a slide show of 2009 winners (below) or read a full description of all 2009 Earth Heroes at School projects (PDF, 111 K).
