After a two-year break, the May 3rd Polish Parade has returned to the streets of Chicago. Students from our school dressed in Polish national colors proudly celebrated the 231st anniversary of the adoption of the May 3rd Constitution.

The Polish Constitution Day on May 3 commemorates the establishment of the first Polish law regulating the political system of the Republic of Poland. It was the second such document in Europe and the third in the world. The act changed the state system into a hereditary monarchy and led to the political equalization of townspeople and nobility. It also introduced state protection over peasants, which was supposed to mitigate the abuses in the levying of serfdom. Pursuant to the Constitution, there was a division of powers into legislative, executive, and judicial.

From our school life in May:

On May 7, students from grades 5 to 10 go to the May 3^rd Parade. Students from Preschool to Grade 4 have classes on Thursday, May 5th (instead of Saturday). You will receive more information from teachers.

On May 7, high school students leave for a prom at Drury Lane in Oak Brook.
