Yesterday, our 3rd and 5th graders spent the day at Giles Pond for our Hooked On Fishing field trip! With support from our wonderful local game wardens, students learned how to fish, practice their casting, and for some, caught a fish for the very first time!
We are incredibly grateful to the game wardens who helped make this experience possible and gave our students such a memorable outdoor learning opportunity.
