Thank you from Ruhi Rane NHDAZ student

Dear NHD AZ team,

 

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your support throughout my National History Day journey. It meant so much to me to have your encouragement and guidance as I worked on my project and had the opportunity to represent our state at Nationals.

 

Going to Nationals was an incredible experience that I will always cherish and remember. I learned so much, not just about history and research, but also about presenting my work, meeting students from around the country, and challenging myself to do my best. None of this would have been possible without the support of the state team.

 

Thank you for all the time, effort, and care you put into helping students like me succeed. I am truly grateful for everything you do.

 

Thank you again!

Sincerely,  Ruhi Rane 


Where was Ruhi Rane at award ceremonies? She gave an award-winning performance and received the Special Award in category Latino American History. Then NHD teacher Stacey Trepanier accepted her award.
Ruhi was off on another adventure . . . Speech and Debate Conference, Richmond, Virginia. One busy and talented girl!!
Title of her performance "Voices of the Vineyards: El Teatro Campesino and the Rise of the Farm Workers Movement".

Rights & Responsibilities in History with National History Day in Arizona

 

Students and teachers are you ready?
The annual National History Day® contest theme is designed to help you think of a topic from any aspect of local, regional, national, or world history. With this focus, you can begin to ask questions that your research will help you answer, including how your topic is significant in history.
Here are the Arizona Historical Society we are partnering with library and archives, historical groups, and educators to develop a study guide to get you thinking about this year’s theme!
NHD’s theme will be: Rights & Responsibilities in History. This year’s theme invites you to consider questions of time and place, cause and effect, change over time, impact and significance. The key to this theme is addressing BOTH rights AND responsibilities. Both are powerful forces in history, but one does not work without the other.
