The National Contest is the culmination of the annual competition cycle and a celebration of student scholarship. After spending months on project research and preparation and successfully competing at local and affiliate contests, student scholars are invited to share their work at the National\u00a0Contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year\u2019s National History Day theme was \u201cFrontiers in History.\u201d Students in grades 6\u201312 conducted research related to the topic, analyzed information, drew conclusions, and created a History Day project in one of five categories (exhibit, performance, multimedia documentary, research paper, or website) to submit for review at the school, county, and then state level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each year nearly 3,000 students with their families and teachers gather at the University of Maryland, College Park, for the week-long National Contest. They come from all fifty United States, the District of Columbia, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, Department of Defense Schools in the Atlantic, and international schools in China, Korea, and elsewhere (NHD International).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A list of HCPSS students advancing to the national competition is included below. These students have already won competitions at the school and county levels and were competing against hundreds of students from school systems across the state.
