Constitution Day

Constitution Day is celebrated every year on September 17, marking the anniversary of the signing of the U.S. Constitution in 1787. This important day serves as a reminder of the foundational principles upon which the United States was built, including liberty, justice, and democracy. In 2004, President George W. Bush signed into law a provision that established September 17 as Constitution Day for all educational institutions receiving Title IV funding. This law, introduced by Senator Robert Byrd, aims to promote awareness and understanding of the Constitution among students and the general public.
