Land of the Free – Students Visit Ellis Island

On May 22nd, the ESL, IB French, IB Italian and International Students attended a class trip to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty.  Students in each class have been studying the immigrant experience both past and present and the trip was the perfect way to cap off their learning.  Students experienced a fun and memorable day completing the interactive activities and exhibits of Ellis Island as well as checking the Wall of Honor for the names of ancestors.  After a ferry ride to Liberty Island, each student was able to climb the ten stories to the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty where they were greeted with the breathtaking view of lower Manhattan.
