It’s not too soon to think about getting recognition for your environmental projects at school.

Each year King County recognizes exceptional programs, teachers and other staff, volunteers, and students who implement projects at their schools or beyond.

Winners are honored each year at a reception featuring entertainment, refreshments, and presentation of awards by King County Executive Ron Sims. Last year, King County presented awards to 17 Earth Heroes at School. Projects  ranged from developing environmental education curriculum to improving or expanding recycling programs to creating native plant gardens.

Nomination forms are available online at www.metrokc.gov/dnrp/swd/education/earth-heroes.asp or by calling Donna Miscolta at 206-296-4477.

Nominations will be accepted until
February 16, 2007.

Winners will be notified in March. The awards reception is scheduled for April 19, 2007.
