Shark Tagging Field Trip

HS Biology Teacher Raising Funds to Support Student Participation in Shark Study
I am a high school biology teacher who is raising funds for a group of students from a very small district with a low economic base. They have an opportunity to participate in an important research project on sharks. The students will be able to participate in a shark-tagging project with a renowned researcher associated with the Guy Harvey Foundation. The participants go to sea on the research ship and watch for sharks. They aid the researcher in “landing” the shark and tagging it for the study. The research being done is to aid in saving many of the endangered sharks and to better understand the migratory paths of these fish. The cost is $50 per student. I have 50 students I want to raise funds for to enable them to participate in this exciting project. It truly is a once in a lifetime experience. Please contribute to this worthy venture. Thank you. M. Katrina Fey, teacher.
