[Temperance and Good Citizenship Day] ... embodying topics pertinent thereto and may from year to year designate particular laws for special observance".[4] In 2013, a bipartisan group of legislators introduced Senate Bill 5753, which was designed to minimize the number of mandates of public schools in observance of lesser-known requirements of state law. Among other things, the law would have repealed the mandate that schools celebrate Temperance and Good Citizenship Day.[5][6] The bill not only did not advance out of committee, but a competing piece of legislation was simultaneously enacted such that public schools in the state were expected to increase their Temperance and Good Citizenship observances by holding voter registration drives for eligible students on this date.[5][7] According to the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, "while many interpret 'temperance' to mean prohibition ... instruction on 'temperance' may include information about prohibition, but it is not a specific requirement of the law ... many districts recognize this day by discussing temperance in connection with good citizenship, specifically addressing self-restraint".[8] Along with Veterans Day and Disability History Month, Temperance and Good Citizenship Day is one of three civic observances for which schools in Washington state are required by the RCW to provide educational programming.[9] See also
