BREAKING BARRIERS IN HISTORY

2020 MARYLAND HISTORY DAY

Maryland History Day is a program of Maryland Humanities CONGRATULATIONS!

Congratulations on your success at Maryland History Day 2020. Whether your project received honors or not, you faced a tremendous obstacle this year: pivoting to an electronic contest during a global pandemic. You then rose to meet that challenge. You put this year’s theme—Breaking Barriers—into action. The entire Maryland Humanities team has been so impressed by your persistence and determination, and I hope that you are proud of your work. You are part of an enormous movement statewide. More than 25,000 students participate in Maryland History Day’s year-long programming. I am thankful for all of you, as well as your teachers and your families who have worked so hard to make your efforts possible. I hope you will continue to showcase your research in your communities, digitally or—eventually—in person. Thank you for taking full advantage of the work of Maryland Humanities and our partnership with your school and National History Day. Thank you for celebrating the value of historical research and lifelong learning, and congratulations again on your achievement! —Aaron Heinsman, Acting Executive Director
