EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, taken circa 1908, captures the picturesque St. Michaels School and Sisters Home located in West Hoboken, New Jersey, USA. The image showcases the beautiful red-brick building, which served as both a school and a home for the Sisters of Mercy. The school, situated on the corner of Clinton Avenue and High Street, was a significant educational institution in the community during the early 1900s. The Sisters Home, attached to the school, provided a residence for the dedicated sisters who taught and cared for the students. The Sisters of Mercy were an order of Roman Catholic religious women founded in Ireland in 1831, known for their commitment to education, health care, and social justice. The photograph reveals the school's lush, green lawn, dotted with trees and adorned with a flagpole flying the American flag. The flag, proudly displayed, symbolizes the strong connection between the school and the country. The building's architectural details, including the arched windows, decorative brickwork, and intricate stonework, showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into its construction. The serene atmosphere of the photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the daily life of the students and sisters who once called St. Michaels School and Sisters Home their own. This image is a testament to the rich history of education and religious dedication that has shaped the community of West Hoboken and the state of New Jersey.
