Constitution Week Educational Resources

Constitution week is a celebration of the Constitution started by the Daughters of the American Revolution. 
​In 1955, DAR petitioned Congress to set aside the week of  September 17-23 annually to be dedicated for the observance of Constitution Week.  The resolution was later adopted by the U.S. Congress and signed into public law on August 2, 1956,
​ by President Dwight D. Eisenhower.
