It is a competition designed for both middle school and high school students. The middle school level is the Junior Division (Grades 6-8) and the high school level is the Senior Division (Grades 9-12). </div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal"> </div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal">Students choose their own topics based on an annual theme; and then, conduct their own body of research by visiting libraries/archives and museums, by conducting interviews and by visiting historical sites. This year's theme is: <b><i>Rights and Responsibilities in History. </i></b><i>I've attached this year's theme sheet for
your reading pleasures.</i></div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal"> </div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal">Students' interpretations of their topics are organized into one of the following five categories: historical paper, exhibit, documentary, website, and performance. Each category has an individual and a group division. Each division will need a minimum of three judges. Those students who win on the county level of competition will then advance to the state level of competition, Maryland History Day. And, those students who win on the state level of competition would advance to the national level of competition, National History Day.</div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal"> </div></div><div><div class="yiv0872534759MsoNormal">Prince George's County History Day will be held at Dr. Henry A.
