Today, our Advanced Biology students headed to the Illinois River for a hands-on field trip with Jason DeBoer from the Illinois River Biological Station. Students got a firsthand look at fish population sampling and identified various native and invasive species right in our own backyard. It was a fantastic day seeing how biology impacts our local community! Go Ducks!
