National History Day in Minnesota is a program that engages students in research-based historical inquiry. Students conduct in-depth research on topics related to an annual theme to create exhibits, documentaries, papers, performances, or websites. The program builds skills like research, writing, and collaboration. Studies show students in the program outperform peers on standardized tests. The program involves local, regional, and state contests culminating in the National History Day contest in June.
