NHD+Theme



The theme for this years National History Day contest is Revolution, Reaction, and Reform in History. The projects may address one of the themes or the students may choose to address two or more of the themes in their projects. For instance, a student may deal with the American Revolution but not address the reaction to or any reform flowing from the American Revolution. This project is properly related to the theme of the contest. Another project may deal with the reaction to and the reforms resulting from the American Revolution. This is properly related to the theme of the contest.

Perhaps the most important aspect of judging is to ensure that the project is related to the National History Day theme. Please keep in mind the theme of the contest as you judge.
