Lightning Environmental
Awareness Program

L.E.A.P. or the Lightning
Environmental Awareness Program is an extracurricular program that was started
in January 1998 by Ms. Noble. Our goals are to promote and educate
our community about environmental issues. We celebrate recycling, energy
conservation, wildlife research, and other important environmental areas
at Eastview High School.
L.E.A.P. meets every Thursday
in C337, Ms. Porterfield's 10th grade biology room, at 2:35p.m. Our
meetings focus primarily on developing innovative ideas to pursue, and planning
our monthly field trips!
Some members of LEAP competed
and took 10th out of 32 teams in the area IV Envirothon in May 2003 at the
University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. It is a competition sponsored
by the Soil and Water Conservation Districts. The students are tested in
six areas of the environment: forestry, aquatics, wildlife, a current event,
soils and agricultural land preservation.
We also took 5th in the 2004
envirothon!!
We encourage any and all
participation!!!!!!
