As the first week of school is underway, we’re looking back at one of West Side School’s most memorable traditions. Ellis Island Day brings history to life as fourth graders step into the shoes of early 1900s immigrants, experiencing a journey filled with medical inspections, legal examinations, and the hope of beginning a new life in America. 🇺🇸

After the March fire threatened this year’s event, the West Side community came together to make it happen—proving once again that some traditions are worth preserving. Here’s to a new school year filled with learning, connection, and the traditions that make West Side special!🍎🎒✏️
Thank you and Meghan James for these great photos!

Nathan Hale can be considered many things: a hero, a martyr, a failed spy.

But mostly Nathan Hale is a mystery.

The original Jones Manor was a 40-room Georgian mansion built by Walter R. Jones in 1850. It was destroyed by fire in 1909 after a kerosene lantern left burning in the cupola ignited the home. Although the Cold Spring Harbor Fire Department's 1852 hand pumper was brought to the scene, the mansion was a total loss. The fire may have inspired Walter Jennings to donate a steam pumper to the department the following year.
At the time, the estate was owned by Dr. Oliver L. Jones and his wife, Mary Elizabeth Jones. Oliver died from a gunshot wound in 1913; while it appeared to be su***de, his family maintained the shooting was accidental. Their daughter, Rosalie Gardiner Jones, later inherited the property. A leading suffragist known as "General Jones," she led marches to Albany and Washington in support of women's voting rights before her death in 1978.
