Constitution Day, observed on September 17, commemorates the signing of the U.S. Constitution in 1787. It is an opportunity for students to learn about the rights and responsibilities of all U.S. citizens, whether by birth or naturalization, and to explore the principles that guide our democracy.

At American Academy, we use this day to engage students in thoughtful discussions and activities that encourage understanding, reflection, and civic awareness.
We will celebrate Constitution Day as a school on September 17th.
Students throughout the building will be participating in activities in their classrooms. Students are welcome to wear red, white, and blue shirts with uniform bottoms to school.Please remember, this is a day to celebrate our nation’s history and unity — so while patriotic colors are encouraged, political attire or campaign-related items will not be allowed.
We love to highlight Constitution Day by teaching our students about the historical significance through the use of exciting lessons.
We are proud to celebrate our U.S. Constitution!
