Connections, History, and Bridges,
Ruby Bridges that is…
Members of the Rho Kappa History Honor Society visited first-grade classrooms at Ocean City Elementary School, Showell Elementary School, and Buckingham Elementary School today to share the inspiring story of Ruby Bridges in honor of African American History Month. Through this program, they helped young students learn about courage, perseverance, and the importance of history📚.
The Rho Kappa Honor Society is advised by history teacher Mary Hathaway.

Congratulations to Team Maryland and Big 33 selections
Trybe Wise(Georgetown U.) and
Ethan Bradshaw(West Point)
These two men have been selected to rep the state of Maryland as we take on Team Pennsylvania in the Big 33 Classic. It’s a great honor to have our 2 players from the same public high school selected out of the 33 possible spots especially when the selection includes all private and Washington DC schools. The Eastern Shore does not usually get kids on this roster every year but when we do they have really shown out. Thank you gentlemen for representing our school and Bayside conference!
4Shore the Bayside will be well represented in this game with these two great student-athletes 4Shore.
