Class of 75

The Brook @ Blalack is an internet river coursing the "World Wide Web" with information about Mr. Trout's 7th grade Texas history classes at Charles M. Blalack Middle School, Carrollton, Texas.  The Brook has an excellent view of student projects, schedules for tests and tutoring, a table of Texas facts and state symbols, and a list of useful links for the study of Texas. So, don't just stand on the bank day dreaming of yesterday's catches or whining about the ones that got away. It's time to grab your flies, pull up your waders, and come on in for the fishing is great and the trout wait for no one.
