She graduated from high school as a Salutatorian. Also, she graduate cumlaude with a Bachelor of Arts in 1985. She obtained her J.D.degree from Harvard Law School in 1988. Michelle Obama is the third first lady that had a postgraduate degree. She met Barack Obama. The couple first date was to the Spike Lee movie. The Movie called " Do The Right Things." The couple got married in 1992. They had children named Malia Ann and Natasha(Sasha).
Thoughtout Michelle husband's campaign for President of the United States, she made a commitment to be away overnight. The Obamas daughters went to school at University of Chicago Lab School. Its was a private school they had attended. When they had move to Washington ,D.C Sasha and Malia attended Sidwell Friends School.
