WHAT:
The Indiana Historical Society is hosting National History Day in Indiana at Ivy Tech Community College’s Fort Wayne Campus. National History Day is a contest for students in fourth to 12^th grades. Participants submit projects like posters, video documentaries, performances, papers, and websites, and the projects are judged by volunteers. Finalists from this regional competition will be invited to compete in the state contest; the top winners in the junior and senior divisions (grades six to 12) will be eligible to compete at the National History Day Contest in Maryland in June.

This is the first time Fort Wayne has been chosen as a regional site for National History Day. Learn more at IndianaHistory.org/education/educator-resources/history-day.
