Arrived on Ellis Island
I arrived on Ellis Island. I had to sacrifice many things to come here such as my education, my home, and my grandparents. My grandparents were to old and my grandmother had a cold so they couldn't stay. I love my gradparents so much! It was very hard for me to leave them. -
Getting Checked
When we arrived at Ellis Island we had to get checked.I had to stay in legal detention for about a day and a half becasue they thought that I had been previsouly arrested. It turned out that they were wrong becasue they were reading the wrong file. -
Finding a Boarding School
After we passed the exams at Ellis Island we had to find a boarding school (a place to stay). Luckily, we found one really quick. We just found one today and are unpacking. Wish us luck! -
The universities were opened to women
In 1874 the universities were opened to women. This has affected me so much! I love going to school and I finally get to! I have always wanted to be a teacher. I hope I get to be one! -
