About Presidents Day

Presidents Day falls on the third Monday in February, a date set by the Uniform Monday Holiday Act and landing between the birthdays of George Washington (February 22) and Abraham Lincoln (February 12). Clues here reach across the whole office: Lincoln's profile on the penny and Washington's on the quarter, the oath a president takes before serving, the cabinet of advisors, Mount Rushmore's carved granite, and Mount Vernon, Washington's home along the Potomac River in Virginia.

Reach for this sheet during a February civics or American history unit, or the week your class discusses how elections and the presidency work.
