Check Out Our Trout in the Classroom (TIC) Program | The 200 trout eggs have arrived! The 4th - 6th grade Science Classes are getting to raise trout through the Trout in the Classroom (TIC) Program. The TIC is a National program aiming to connect students to their watershed. This program started on the East coast in 1991. Specifically, the NEBRASKA Trout in the Classroom started as a pilot in 2013. We would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to the Supporters of this program: Nebraska Environmental Trust, Trout Unlimited, and Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. Also, a BIG THANK YOU to our local supporter of the Morrill Foundation for awarding us a classroom grant to purchase an aquarium stand.
