Vermont History Day students can create a paper, website, documentary, performance, or exhibit on a topic of their choice. Students must relate their topic back to NHD’s annual theme. 2024 is an exciting anniversary for NHD. To celebrate 50 years of NHD, the contest theme will be Turning Points in History.
