We the People of the United States of America The true power in our nation’s government resides in the first three words of the Constitution, “We the People”. Students of CCS-America observed Constitution Day on September 16, commemorating the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787. Students celebrated by participating in a parade and learning about the importance of the Constitution through different activities: Escape Rooms, videos, books, crafts, and more. Each student received an American flag (made in the USA) to wave while marching in the parade to patriotic music. All campuses were visited by the Father of the Constitution, James Madison! James Madison gave a speech and then joined the students on the parade route. At CCS-America we hope ALL American citizens know and value the US Constitution.
