We started out our Salmon Watch season with a burst– of rain that is! Portland Waldorf School traveled to the Salmon River last Thursday and the students and volunteers experienced some torrential rains. That downpour seems to have allowed a number of salmon to return to their spawning grounds in both the Salmon and Zigzag Rivers with students observing firsthand the wonders of nature!
Two Grant High School students from Amy Polzin’s class show off their findings at the Macroinvertebrate Sampling station. The class traveled to Zigzag River on Monday.
As of today, 9 classes have already gotten to experience their Salmon Watch field trips! A big thank you to the volunteers and teachers that made them possible:
