Opportunities in History for Homeschoolers

 


Since 1974, a research opportunity and competition for middle school and high school students who love history has existed. It is the National History Day. The rules and the theme for the competition are announced each June. The projects are judged in regional competitions in early spring with the winners competing nationally later. The Kentucky Historical Society facilitates the National History Day in Kentucky which is hosted online here: https://history.ky.gov/for-educators/national-history-day/.

This competition is rigorous. The participants produce original research. There are several different formats in which they can present the research.

The Kentucky Faith & Public History Education Project encourages homeschoolers to get involved with this opportunity. Follow the competition this year so you will be motivated and informed about how to get started on the 2021-2 competition when it is announced in June.
