Kids got a lesson in fish and clean water in Washington County on Thursday. After months of raising trout, students from Trinity Elementary Schools saw their projects come to an end at Mingo Creek Park in Nottingham Township.

School buses pulled up to the park filled with fifth graders from Trinity East. The students got off and gathered around three buckets of trout. Eventually, they walked to the stream and released the fish that they've taken care of since this past January.

Dumping the trout into the water was a special moment for 11-year-old Madison Galbreth.

"It was really fun," Galbreth said. "We've known them since they were little eggs, and we just seen them grow up, and it was really cool."
