Johns Creek High School Releases Trout

Trout in the Classroom is an environmental education program.

Johns Creek High School and the Upper Chattahoochee Chapter of Trout Unlimited participated recently in a Trout in the Classroom trout release.

TIC is an environmental education program in which students raise rainbow trout from eggs to fingerling size fish; monitor tank water quality; engage in stream habitat study; learn to appreciate water resources; begin to foster a conservation ethic; and grow to understand ecosystems. The program not only teaches students the value of environmental conservation, but also highlights benefits to our local cold-water streams from healthy aquatic life.
