Mrs. Willson went above and beyond today at CMS to not only educate 8th grade students about a career within the dairy industry but also reached a 5th grade audience. 8th grade students learned about careers in the dairy industry and the 5th grade students learned about dairy cattle!

Volunteer club members from the Fish Creek Atlantic Salmon Club joined the 6th and 7th grade CMS students to help them release over 400 Brook Trout and Atlantic Salmon into Mad River.
Students learned how to assess stream health, about fish health and diseases, aquatic macro invertebrates, and fish anatomy. Students were also able to spend time with the members to learn more about their environment, ask questions, and share fish stories.
For the past 9 years, the club has provided the eggs to each classroom, equipment, food, and supplies to make this year-long experience possible. Special thanks to the club and its members for their continued support for our school. It's always a memorable experience!
