NHD in DC

This guide collates resources from locations across the District that will aid teachers and students in conducting research for National History Day in DC.

Get Started?

A National History Day® (NHD) project is your way of presenting your historical argument, research, and interpretation of your topic’s significance in history. NHD projects can be created individually or as part of a group. There are two entry divisions: Junior (grades 6–8) or Senior (grades 9–12). After reading the Contest Rule Book and learning about the annual theme, you’re ready to dig in!

Do independent research and inquiry?
