​Welcome to Kansas History Day!  This site is designed to provide information for students, teacher, parents, and others interested in the History Day program.  Portions of this site have been adapted, with permission from the Washington State History Day website.

What is History Day?
History Day is a year long learning opportunity for students in grades six through twelve, that offers students the opportunity to explore topics that interests them. They conduct research, using primary and secondary resources, and then analyze the information, in light of an over-arching historical theme or question.

For teachers it offers practical models for integrating Common Core standards in the classroom that improves test scores on reading, math, and science assessments and prepares students for college level work.
See the KHD brochure for additional information.
