Celebrate Freedom Week
Each year, during the week that includes September 17, Texas schools honor Celebrate Freedom Week to highlight the values on which the United States was founded as well as the sacrifices that were made for freedom in the founding of the country. Students learn about the intent, meaning, and importance of the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.
Celebrate Freedom Week coincides with Constitution Week, established by the U.S. Congress to encourage all Americans to learn about the Constitution. Both Celebrate Freedom Week and Constitution Week focus on September 17th, the date in 1787 when delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the Constitution. Congress has also designated September 17 of each year as Constitution Day.
Next week, Eubanks Intermediate will be honoring Celebrate Freedom Week & Constitution Day. In our social studies classrooms, our students will learn appropriate instruction concerning the intent, meaning, and importance of the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, in their historical context. Per Board Policy EHBK (Legal), “the study of the Declaration of Independence must include the study of the relationship of the ideas expressed in that document to subsequent American history, including the relationship of its ideas to the rich diversity of our people as a nation of immigrants, the American Revolution, the formulation of the United States Constitution, and the abolitionist movement, which led to the Emancipation Proclamation and the women’s suffrage movement.” Additionally, students in grades 3-12 will engage in recitation of a portion of the Declaration of Independence. Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact myself or your student’s teacher.

In order to preserve the learning environment, while also eliminating unnecessary distractions, we are asking students to leave all personal communication and electronic devices at home or in the "off" mode in their school bags. The use of these devices by students during the school day is prohibited. The only exception is if a teacher specifically asks students to bring a device for classroom instruction purposes.
