GREAT AMERICAN CLEANUP

ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION

Walnut Hills High School Environmental Mentorship in partnership with KCB

It's been another successful year for our WHHS Mentorship Program. Over the course of 6 weeks in January and February, students participated in group projects with the goal to tackle a local environmental issue under the guidance of volunteer mentors.

These student groups presented their research to an audience of environmental experts, parents and educators -- great job students!

Special thanks to the Duke Energy Foundation for their sponsorship and the volunteer mentors who shared their time and expertise with the student groups.
