MCMS Trout in the Classroom Project

The students in Mrs. Bowling's science encore class is working to prepare for the arrival of the trout-eyed eggs in September. The tank is in the process of being set up and readied for the trout. We are going to be practicing the water quality monitoring necessary to keep the trout alive and happy in the tank and have established a spreadsheet program to track the growth of the trout as well as the water quality throughout this school year.  We are excited to get this project at Mason County Middle School and look forward to the numerous learning opportunities it poses for our students. Keep checking this wiki for more information, pictures, and videos of our trout and eventually the release of our fingerlings into a Kentucky trout approved stream later this year in March.
