Students from preschool through grade 12 can learn about the world's endangered species by entering the national Endangered Species Poster Contest sponsored by Target Stores, the National Wildlife Federation and the Environmental Information Center.

The contest is open to all youth and prizes will be awarded in five grade categories: pre K-1, 2-3, 4-6, 7-9 and 10-12. The winning artwork will be displayed at the White House Office of Environmental Policy and will be available to tour science and children's museums.
