Shady Side Students Help the Bay with Postcards

Fifth-graders from Shady Side Elementary School are selling postcards they made to help Chesapeake Bay restoration.

After participating in a oyster raising project, students in Molly Tremel's fifth-grade class decided they wanted to do more to help.

Tremel had her students create pictures of the bay, which she then turned into postcards. Her class came up with a business plan for marketing, promoting and selling the postcards, which they presented to the PTO.

With the help of the PTO, the class was able to print and now sell the postcards with funds going to the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.

The whole class created bay-themed pictures, and Tremel selected a few to be made into postcards. The following students cards were selected:

• Jayda White
• Will Dickerson
• Casey Kopitskie
• Jack Boisseau

The postcards are now available for purchase at $7 for eight cards. To place an order, you can fill out the attached flier and mail it to Shady Side Elementary at 4859 Atwell Rd., Shady Side, MD 20764.
