This March CVUSD Honors National Women’s History Month

Each year, National Women’s History Month offers an opportunity to honor the contributions women have made to our nation and society. CVUSD is proud to recognize the accomplishments of women all year through and especially this March.

National Women’s History Month began as a week-long observance celebrated the week of March 8, 1980, to honor the contributions women have made to our nation and society. That week was chosen to correspond with International Women’s Day, which is March 8th.The event was expanded to a month-long observance in 1987 on the approval of Public Law 100-9, and since that time each president has issued an annual proclamation designating March as Women’s History Month.

At the Tuesday, February 15, 2023 Board of Education Meeting, the Board adopted Resolution #22/23-21 In Support of National Women’s History Month, recognizing March 8, 2023 as International Women’s Day, and the month of March 2023 as National Women’s History Month in the Conejo Valley Unified School District.
