When I was a kid, we used to get California Admission Day off school as a holiday. It's kinda sad; I'll bet if I asked the kid in the front of each row in each of my classes, none will know the significance of the date (unless they heard it on the tv or radio in the morning before school).
It's a great holiday.
That was back when state history mattered. We used to get San Jacinto Day off-Texas Independence. Needless to say, that doesn't happen anymore due to a variety of reasons.
