Presidents’ Day

George Washington	Thomas Jefferson	Andrew Jackson	Abraham Lincoln
Woodrow Wilson	Franklin Roosevelt	John F. Kennedy	Ronald Reagan
Some of the most famous Presidents…. George Washington – He was the first U.S. President and known by Americans as the "father of the country." His face is on the one-dollar bill and the quarter. Thomas Jefferson – He wrote the Declaration of Independence and served as the third President. He was a brilliant philosopher and statesman. He’s on the nickel (five-cent piece). Andrew Jackson – He was widely admired as a self-made man who rose to the most powerful position in the country. He was the seventh President, and you can see a picture of him on the twenty-dollar bill. Abraham Lincoln – He was the 16th President and perhaps the most loved because he ended slavery and presided over the winning of the Civil War. He’s on the penny (one-cent piece) and the five dollar bill. Woodrow Wilson – He served as the 28th President during World War I and helped form the League of Nations, which served as the model for the present-day United Nations. Franklin Roosevelt – He was the only President elected to four terms, from 1933 to 1945. Roosevelt was President during the Great Depression and World War II. He expanded the role of government in order to help Americans who were poor and in need of assistance, and was greatly loved by the people. His picture is on the dime (10-cent piece) John F. Kennedy – He was the nation’s youngest president and served during the early 1960s when the U.S. and the Soviet Union almost went to war. He was assassinated in 1963. His death shocked the country. His face is on the fifty-cent piece. Ronald Reagan – Loved among Republicans and some Democrats, Reagan brought tremendous pressure against the Soviet Union to compete against the U.S. and ultimately outspent the Soviet Union which collapsed after he left office. He was the oldest President ever elected. On Presidents’ Day we remember the good Presidents–not the bad ones. For more information and pictures about U.S. money, click here.
