🎣SCHS Agriscience Students Explore the Normandy Fish Hatchery!

Under the guidance of #ShelbyvilleCentralHighSchool Agriscience instructor Morgan Grannas, #students got hands-on experience at the TWRA Normandy Fish Hatchery—learning how parent fish are collected, spawned and hatched and how ponds are filled and maintained throughout the seasons.

Students explored the process of raising walleye, crappie and striped bass and even helped harvest over 85,000 crappie in just two days! Hatchery Manager Nathan Singer led a tour of the facility, including the areas where eggs will be spawned and hatched this spring.

A day of real-world learning, teamwork and science in action! 🐟🌱
