Regional National History Day Contest

DSC_0948

On Friday of spring break, three of our students went back to work a little early by spending the day participating in the regional National History Day contest. Both junior and senior high students came to the Old Capital Museum to compete in several different categories including websites, performances, historical papers, exhibits, and documentaries. Our sixth graders presented their work to a panel of judges and competed against sixth through eighth graders from the surrounding areas. Only one student from each category was chosen to represent our area at the state competition in Des Moines in May. I am extremely excited to announce that two of our students, Halle and Emma, were chosen to present at the state competition in their respective categories. Please join in me in congratulating all of our students that participated in the fair on their hard work and dedication to this project!
