Congratulations to all the students who entered projects in the National History Day Regionals. All 15 projects are listed since all 15 projects were exceptional. 30 high/middle schools participated and three awards were given to each category.
Mrs. Quade and Mrs. Casper are the advisors to the student projects. We congratulate them and thank them for their guidance and hard work. The teachers learning about so many projects in such depth is to be commended.
Many other teachers (and a principal) helped in their own special way. They are Mrs. Dube (research, research, and more research), Mrs. Kuniak (artistic support for backdrops/props), Mrs. Ziccarelli (staging/acting/voice), and our volunteer Mrs. Heckman (technology). Parents thank you for your support, help, snacks and dinners, and resourcefulness in finding props and costume, driving to interviews, and waiting for the voice overs to be done "once more."
The student projects can be either individual or group. The projects are listed below.
