Opportunities for Students and Teachers

Watershed of Words writing and art contest

2012 Watershed of Words
Congratulations to all our 2012 published authors and artists and a big "Thank you!" to all students who submitted entries in the 2012 year contest! You all play an important role in helping our community understand the importance of clean water and how everyone can make a difference in protecting our streams.

The 2012 edition of Watershed of Words was our biggest issue yet. We selected 138 authors and 55 artists for publication out of more than 1,000 entries. Sixty-two classrooms from 21 Clark County schools were represented. Judging was very tough as space was limited and all entries were so great.

About Watershed of Words
Each year, Clark County students are invited to take part in a creative writing and art contest for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Winning students' writing and art submissions are published in a soft-bound booklet used to raise awareness in the community about the importance of protecting our water resources.
