Floyd Elementary Salmon Project

Floyd Elementary is part of the Michigan DNR Salmon in the Classroom project.

For more information, see the MI DNR’s page: www.michigan.gov/salmonintheclassroom

This instrumental learning experience grants 3rd grade and older students the opportunity to raise, care for and maintain the salmon in their classroom from fall until spring. The program culminates at the end of the school year with the release of the young fish in a local watershed that feeds one of the Great Lakes. Students and teachers participate in a program to follow the life cycle of salmon from eggs, to hatchling to smolt, starting in the classroom.
