Constitution Day, September 17th

Federal law requires that all schools receiving federal funds provide an educational program for their students on September 17 of each year. September 17 is recognized in the United States as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day to commemorate the creation and signing of the Constitution. You can check out a display on the main floor of the library and an online guide prepared specifically for Constitution Day.
