    Special Thanks to Kyle Barr for designing the NHD-CA logo.

    National History Day is a vehicle for reaching Common Core State Standards (CCSS) student learning goals in history, academic reading and writing, message-based creative project development, effective use of technology, and interpersonal communication.  NHD directly addresses the following CCSS areas:

    ​

    • Reading Informational Text & Literature

    • Writing, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, and Analysis

    • Speaking & Listening

     

    Instead of being squeezed into a packed curriculum, NHD blends History and English-language arts objectives and skills simultaneously. Students can create NHD projects as part of their classroom experience. Teachers can then decide if all or selected projects will move on to a loal NHD competition.
