Thanks to a wonderful donation to WSMS from Scott and his family and the help from MC after 3, the students have the opportunity to raise trout in Mrs. Cockrell's Science classroom! Students have been learning how to check the water temperatures, the PH levels, how to run a tank effectively, and collect data to write observations. Also, thank you to Megan from Paw Paw schools for helping provide the fish to get started! It truly is amazing how this community works together 🐺
