Congratulations to all the National History Day in Ohio Participants!

Now that we have completed another successful year of National History Day in Ohio, I want to take this opportunity to congratulate all of you on a job well done! Every year the History Day staff is amazed at the quality of the projects done by you, the students.

I hope you have found your judges comments to be helpful as many of you begin planning for next year's project. If you have questions regarding the interpretation of your judges comments please do not hesitate to e-mail the History Day Expert at historyday@ohiohistory.org

As we begin to wrap up another school year, I could use some feedback on these blogs. The History Day expert needs to know what kind of History Day information you are looking for when you view the blog. Has this blog been helpful to you? What can make it better? This is your opportunity to speak out! So lets hear it!
