Governor Sarah Sanders has issued a proclamation designating Wednesday, September 24, as a Day of Prayer for Arkansas Students.
In 2021, the Arkansas Legislature passed Act 902 directing the governor to proclaim the last Wednesday in September of as a Day of Prayer for Arkansas Students.
The Arkansas Department of Education’s Division of Elementary and Secondary Education is required to notify public school districts of the day of prayer as well.
Act 902 also urges citizens of Arkansas to pray for students, teachers, administrators, and schools on that day.
We appreciate Arkansas’ lawmakers and governor designating a day to pray for the state’s students and educators, and we hope everyone will take time to pray on Wednesday, September 24.
