There is a program at our local high school that is about what you are wanting to do.

As part of the class, everybody takes the hunters education & trappers education. Not only are they graded on it, but they get the certs too. They talked about many different things. My local NWTF chapter donated some kind simutlator for shooting too. We had a game dinner at the end of the class. Field trip to go fishing, skeet shooting and many other things. He brought in a dead pheasant for our class and demonstrated how to clean it. Depending on the semester you take, he takes you trapping too. It has been so long, I can't even remember it all. I took a liter of our German Shorthair Pups to the class just for the fun of it once. We had a local game warden come in and talk on several occasions.

If you would like, I might be able to try and get a class rundown for you. I somewhat know the teacher and he should be happy to help.

This is the description that the school puts out

AG RESOURCES (1 term)

Ag Resources is a study of wildlife habitats, hunting, trapping, fishing, forests, prairies, soils, pond management, and conservation of natural resources. Development of habitat will also be covered. Students will earn certification in hunter safety and trapper education.

Class Level: 10-12
Credit: 1/2 unit credit

Quick question..........are you a teacher or a student?
