Call for National History Day in Indiana Volunteers!
We need volunteers to judge student projects for National History Day. Judges do NOT need prior knowledge in any particular area of interest. Above all, judges should be interested in encouraging students to engage with learning. Student projects include papers, websites, exhibits, performances and documentaries.
Judges are required to be at the contests in person from approximately 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. All judges will be provided breakfast and lunch.
