The Exira-EHK science department has entered the school in the Follett Challenge for its annual Earth Day activity and can win up to $60,000 for the school. The Follett Challenge showcases and rewards educators who are teaching the skills needed in the 21st century collaboratively. In order to enter, they filled out a long written application and made a five-minute video explaining the program with the help of the freshmen TAG students.

The video features pictures from previous Earth Days as well as interviews from students, teachers, and community members. But they need your help to win! The videos with the top 10 votes win $8,000 and can win up to $60,000 based on the written application and the total number of votes. Anyone with an e-mail account can vote once a day for the duration of the voting period.

Go to www.follettchallenge.com daily to vote for their video titled “Exira-EHK Earth Day” now through January 30th.
