Volunteer to be a Regional History Day Judge!

Event at St. Cloud State University on Saturday, March 23rd, 2024


National History Day in Minnesota promotes in-depth research and critical analysis for students in grades 6-12. Students explore historical topics through projects ranging from performances, exhibits and documentary films to websites and research papers. This year’s History Day theme is “Frontiers in History: People, Places, Ideas.”

Judging for History Day is a great way to connect with the local community and impact students across Minnesota. Volunteers are a vital part of making History Day happen.

Sign up today! There are several opportunities to judge. Sign-up for the event that works best for you on our website: History Day Judge Sign-up

As a judge you will:
  • Review entries in your preferred category
  • Evaluate the work of young researchers
  • Provide written feedback to students about their projects
  • Select projects to advance to state competition

All volunteers must register in advance and attend a judge orientation before judging begins.

Virtual and in-person judge opportunities are available.
