Welcome home, “Brookies!” Mrs. Turner, Mrs. Wilcox, and Mrs. Lapier’s classrooms are now the home to 600 Brook Trout eggs. Each classroom hatchery will provide students with the opportunity to raise the trout from egg to fry. The program culminates with a fish release into Mad River this spring. This is year is CMS’s 9th year of working with Trout Unlimited and Fish Creek Atlantic Salmon Club! Students will work with the club throughout the school year and learn about stream health, fish anatomy, tank/stream chemistry, local habitat and watershed, and much more! Thank you to our “fish friends” at Trout Unlimited and Fish Creek Atlantic Salmon Club for your continued support!
