iUP's students did amazingly at the National History Day competition, this past weekend. To celebrate its 50th anniversary, NHD’s theme is Turning Points in History. This year’s theme invites students to consider questions of time and place, cause and effect, change over time, and impact and significance.
Nine projects have advanced to the Texas History Day State Competition, held in Austin on April 20th.
