OSBRC 11th Annual Challenge Leaderboards
Point scores are recorded as an "estimate" when submitted through the online portal by a participating school. A score will only be recorded as "actual" when Environmental 360 Solutions collects, sorts and processes full drums. At that point, E360S will adjust a school's point scores based on the actual weight.
All final scores will be based on actual weight. For more information, please see our Official Challenge Rules.
This leaderboard is for schools with enrollment of 250 or more. The payout for this leaderboard will include the top five schools; a 1st place prize ($200.00), a 2nd place prize ($100.00) and a leaderboard prize for 3rd, 4th and 5th ($60.00 each).
Prize dollar amounts are an estimate based on current tonnage submitted and may be subject to change.

Can you imagine a life without batteries?
It’s hard to imagine, isn’t it? If you’re like me, you depend on batteries everyday. They're all around us. The battery in our watches keeps us on time like the battery in our cellphones keeps us in touch. You could say that batteries power our lives or empower us to live better lives.
