    Assuming that Washington was President for a full eight years (2922 days) and given that President’s Day was established in 1885, the last President’s Day would be in 4807.

    Mrs. Olsen should give him a gold star in both History and Math.

    Officially, the third Monday in February is George Washington’s Birthday according to the Uniform Monday Holiday Act (1968), not Presidents Day.

    I always think these kids should get extra credit for all the types of facts and figures they seem to know. Some teacher is actually going to shut them down some day.

    Obscure trivia question: What was the local date when Washington was born? Answer: Feb 11th. The colonies were still on the Julian calendar at the time, which was 11 days different from the Gregorian calendar we now use. https://www.livescience.com/33022-when-is-george-washingtons-real-birthday.html

    William Henry Harrison did more good as president than his grandson.

    Fun fact: Most history books (and Wikipedia) give Washington’s birth date as February 22, 1732. But when George was growing up, his birthday was Feb. 11, 1731 — 11 days, plus 1 year, different. https://www.livescience.com/33022-when-is-george-washingtons-real-birthday.html

    This whole theory can get complicated when you consider that, while William Henry Harrison served the shortest presidency so far after dying of pneumonia a month into the job, his DNA eventually served a full term in the person of his grandson Benjamin Harrison.

    Who, if you’re the kind of person who enjoys how history keeps doubling back on itself, was the president who bisected Grover Cleveland’s two terms.
