After weeks of raising trout from eggs in our science classroom tanks, the fish, although just fingerlings, are big enough to be released. On Thursday, March 12th, our high school science class traveled to Del Norte to release their trout into the Rio Grande. This is part of a nationwide education program sponsored by Trout Unlimited. South Conejos is grateful to be part of this educational initiative and opportunity!
