Two Salem High students, Ashley Raynes and Molly Ryan coordinated a service learning project called Senior Pen Pals, in which kids from a fifth grade class at Bowditch School and the seniors from the Senior Center have been writing letters other back and forth. On Thursday they had a chance to meet their pen pals during an ice cream social at Salem High School. Here pen pals, Shirley Knight of Beverly and fifth grader Andrew McRae look at a photo they took on a cell phone together. Photo by Deborah Parker/April 8, 2010
