Finalists Announced for National History Day in Indiana Central Region Contest

March 7, 2022

The Indiana Historical Society (IHS) proudly announces students have been selected to advance to the National History Day in Indiana (NHDI) State Contest after a successful Central region contest on Saturday, March 5. The contest included students from DeKalb, Hamilton and Marion counties.

Approximately 222 students took part in Saturday’s contest, with finalists advancing to the 2022 NHDI State Contest on April 30 at Marian University in Indianapolis.

NHDI is a yearlong program dedicated to enhancing history education in Indiana’s schools. Students in grades four through 12 explore a historical subject that fits under the annual theme. This year’s theme is “Debate & Diplomacy in History: Successes, Failures, Consequences.” Students use their research to create a documentary, exhibit, paper, performance or website. To reach the 2022 NHDI State Contest, students must qualify at one of five regional virtual contests.

For a list of Central region contest finalists, including student names, school names, project categories and project names, please visit: NHDI Central Region Finalists.

NHDI is a project-based, inquiry-based program that encourages students to explore their own passions by conducting research, developing research questions, and then exhibit their individual learning styles through the creation of exhibits, documentaries, performances, papers and websites.

NHDI is presented by the Rooker Family Foundation with support from the Vigran Family Foundation. For more information, visit www.indianahistory.org/historyday or call (317) 232-1882.
