CHANGES TO HISTORICAL PAPER CATEGORY
Beginning with contests in 2024, registration and submission of all historical papers will follow a different format from all other categories.
Historical papers will not compete at county contests. Instead, papers will be directly submitted to the state contest by your teacher. Each school will be allowed to submit up to 3 papers.
After months of intensive research and success at district and county-level competitions, champions were recognized in Sacramento on Sunday, April 21st at California State University Sacramento, concluding the 2024 National History Day—California state competition. More than 1,500 students participated, coming from 248 schools across 25 counties. Sixty-seven students will represent California at the National History Day competition taking place in College Park, Maryland June 9-13, 2024.
