JWCC Celebrates Constitution Day

JWCC Celebrates Constitution Day
September 17, 2024

John Wood Community College is observing Constitution Week this week. September 17 is Constitution Day. This is a federal holiday commemorating the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787, which is the world’s longest surviving written charter of government.  This day commemorates the signing of the U.S. Constitution and recognizes all American citizens.

From 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., representatives from the County Clerk’s office will be on campus to assist those who still need to register to vote. Additionally, the League of Women Voters will be available from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. to provide information and answer questions.

We encourage all citizens to check out some of the great resources to help us learn more about our constitution on the United States Census Bureau’s website
