“From the first settlers who came to our shores, from the first American Indian families who befriended them, men and women have worked together to build this nation. Too often the women were unsung and sometimes their contributions went unnoticed. But the achievements, leadership, courage, strength and love of the women who built America was as vital as that of the men whose names we know so well.” — Jimmy Carter. 

Still, it wasn’t until 1987 that Congress passed Public Law 100-9, turning Women’s History Week into a Month-long observation.  Between 1988 and 1994, Congress passed additional resolutions giving the Chief Executive’s Office authority to proclaim this celebration every year.  Since 1995, each President has issued an annual proclamation designating the entire month of March to honor America’s women. 

So, while you certainly don’t need to wait until March in order to commemorate the accomplishments of the wonderful women in your life (or anywhere else in this great nation of ours), Quiq Labs has the lesson plans you need to honor patriotic mothers, daughters, and sisters everywhere in the U.S. of A . . .
