2 About the National History Day Program The Wisconsin Historical Society is proud to sponsor the National History Day program in Wisconsin. National History Day is an exciting academic enrichment program for students in grades 6-12. History Day was created by the faculty at Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio in 1974 and has grown into a national program with over a half-million students participating annually. The goal of National History Day is to promote the study of history in schools by offering a creative forum in which students can express their scholarship. National History Day in Wisconsin strives to create a higher degree of appreciation for the value of historical thought in the students, educators, and community members who participate. Over 10,000 Wisconsin students worked with the program this year.

The spirit of History Day is based upon the encouragement of achievement and recognition of excellence. It is the goal of the program to empower students with research and critical thinking skills and outlets for creative expression which will enhance their academic abilities in all areas of study.

We wish to recognize the following organizations and regional coordinators for their sponsorship and support of Wisconsin’s nine regional programs: Northwoods Region in Minocqua Northwestern Regional at UW-Eau Claire Lakeland Union High School Janet Seymour Northern Region in Ashland Northeastern Regional at Waukesha Northland College, MaryJo Gringas Carroll University, Melissa Kehler East Central Region in Sheboygan South Central Region at UW-Madison Lakeland College, Jason Duff & Rick Dodgson NHD Staff Western Region at UW-La Crosse Northeastern Region at UW-Green Bay Dr. Pat Stovey Debra Anderson Southeastern Regional at UW-Milwaukee Ellen Langill Thank you to our State Finalist Workshop host sites: Carroll University Wisconsin Historical Society La Crosse Public Library The History Museum at the Castle, Appleton Chippewa Valley Museum, Eau Claire Ronald Reagan IB High School, Milwaukee Dr. Kate Museum, Woodruff
