Hello TIC Teachers!
Due to the extended winter break, NYC DEP has extended the deadline of our Water Resources Art and Poetry Contest. Entries will now be accepted online through Monday, March 9.
Second through twelfth grade students in New York City and the East and West of Hudson Watersheds are invited to create original art and compose poetry that reflects an appreciation for our shared water resources. The five central themes of the contest, incorporating STEM and humanities disciplines, include: Water, a Precious Resource; NYC Drinking Water; NYC Wastewater Treatment; Harbor Water Quality and Healthy Marine Ecosystems; and Water Stewardship and Climate Change.
To learn more and submit entries, visit DEP's website. For questions, contact artand...@dep.nyc.gov.
Thank you,
