    NHD Logo National History Day
     
    National History Day is an academic program focused on historical research, interpretation and creative expression. By participating in NHD, students become writers, filmmakers, web designers, playwrights and artists as they create unique contemporary expressions of history. The experience culminates in a series of contests at the local levels and an annual national competition in the nation's capitol in June.
      
    Students will be eligible for an Atkins High School Varsity letter if they place high enough in the regional tournament to move on to the state level AND participate in the state level competition.
     
    Atkins teacher Anna Lepkowski heads this team up at Atkins, in collaboration with other teachers.
     
    In its first year, Atkins had two students make it to the national level, and last year, Atkins had more state qualifiers than ever.
