National History Day Regional Winners

Congratulations to the MPS students who participated in the Minneapolis Public Schools National History Day Regional on Saturday, March 23, at Anwatin Middle School.
 
The 2013 regional was the largest in the competition’s history, with about 500 students from more than 20 schools competing for a spot at the state contest. Projects ranged from exhibits on topics like Pulitzer Prize-winning photographs and the Stonewall Riots to documentaries on Title IX and Apple.
 
More than 80 students qualified for the state competition, which will take place on Saturday, May 4, at the University of Minnesota. MPS students will compete against 12 other Minnesota regions for a shot at the national contest at the University of Maryland-College Park in June.
