Don’t Forget Constitution Day! – September 17th

A provision in Section 111 of Division J of Pub. L. 108-447, the “Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2005,” Dec. 8, 2004; 118 Stat. 2809, 3344-45, requires “educational institutions” that receive Federal funds to hold an educational program on the United States Constitution on or around September 17, “Constitution Day and Citizenship Day,” of each year for the students served by the educational institution.

Because many of our students receive Federal Aid, we would like for them to visit the site below to learn more about the Constitution, our country’s founding document. https://www.archives.gov/news/topics/constitution-day
