Calling all 5th Grade Teachers!

Join 5th grade students and teachers across the state in submitting original artwork for the Indiana DNR Division of Forestry’s annual 5th Grade Arbor Day Poster Contest.

The theme for the 2024-2025 school year is Healthy Trees, Healthy Me!

Students participating in this year’s contest can learn about how trees contribute to human health, including:

  • producing the oxygen we breathe via photosynthesis,
  • protecting our drinking water by filtering pollutants and reducing erosion,
  • cooling the air, which reduces risk of heat-related illnesses,
  • reducing stress and improving mood for people in public greenspaces,
  • And more!

Brought to you by the division’s Community and Urban Forestry program (CUF) and Indiana Project Learning Tree, this contest is designed for students to discover the important role of trees in Indiana’s urban and forest communities and foster appreciation and stewardship of the trees around them.

All Indiana schools and homeschooling families/co-ops are eligible to hold a schoolwide contest and submit their winning poster to the statewide contest.

Participating teachers are encouraged to engage with the contest theme in their classrooms to help inspire their students’ artwork. Teaching resources and standard alignments are provided on the contest webpage, along with full submission instructions and contest rules: on.IN.gov/arbor-day-poster.

Submissions will be due April 1, 2025, and winners will be announced on April 21, 2025.

For more information, contact Racheal Stenger at 317-234-6741 or rstenger@dnr.IN.gov.
