Running a History Day Contest at Your School

Conducting a school level contest benefits your students and the quality of their projects. By providing an additional round of evaluation, school contests enable students to revise their projects before advancing to the regional contest. At a school contest, students gain experience with talking about or performing their project in a safe environment, which builds confidence in themselves and their History Day projects.
