Contest Information
|
Formal competition in Kansas begins at the district level. The state is divided into 6 districts, each hosting its own competition for students living in the counties within the district. Student entries are evaluated by judges who are professional historians, educators, or community leaders familiar or experienced with History Day.
Following district competition, entries that place first, second, or third in each category are eligible to compete at the state/affiliate competition at Washburn University in Topeka. Students who place first or second at the Kansas History Day State Contest advance to the National History Day contest in College Park, Maryland, held annually in June. |
