Thursday, May 15, the second grade was able to take it's annual field trip to Hagerman.
Students were able to visit the Hagerman National Fish Hatchery. They toured the facility and were able to learn and see many new things. They ended their tour with a trip to the sturgeon pond, where they were able to pet a sturgeon. These fish were humongous and have been at the hatchery for over 20 years. Sturgeons can live for up to 100 years!
Students traveled to the Hagerman Fossil Bed Dig Site where they were able to see some replicas of some of Idaho's most famous fossils. They learned about some of the ancient animals. It was very interesting.
They were even able to do a mock excavation for some fossils.
After a long day of learning and bus riding...
we finally made it to Thousand Springs Resort for some swimming!
We had a great day!!
