Quote from Our Flag

... on the anniversary of the last day of operations for Ellis Island - America's leading immigration station from 1892 to 1954 ...



"Beginning with a trip out to Ellis Island,
I saw for myself where thousands of European immigrants
took their first steps on to American soil,
bringing with them nothing but their ambition (hopes & dreams)."



- P. Merton

Students across America, at school or at home, inspired by those who came (emigrated) to America, the land of opportunity, please, unite and state together:
