#EGMS The fish have arrived in 8th grade! Or more accurately, the fish EGGS have arrived. We received 200 Atlantic salmon eggs as part of the salmon restoration program, and 460 (!!!!) brown trout eggs from the DEEP. The 8th graders will raise these tiny fish in class this winter and release them in Salmon Brook on a field trip in spring. We even had a special guest make the delivery - East Granby Board of Education Chair and retired 8th grade science teacher, Mr. Bob Paskewicz!
