2nd Grade Living History Day - Ellis Island

On Wednesday, January 22, 2025, Oakwood School's adventurous and intrepid 2nd grade students embarked on a long journey to America. They traveled in a huddled mass on their voyage across the ocean to their new country and sampled a typical snack while at sea. When they finally arrived in America, they experienced what it was like to endure the long lines for medical and mental inspections before finally having their passports approved by the legal inspector (Mrs. Shales). As they were approved to enter the United States of America, students enjoyed delicious foods from their country of origin and shared their treasures they brought with them in their suitcases. A heartfelt thank you to everyone for making this day memorable for our wonderful students!
