Raiders at State History Day
May 4, 2021
Twenty-two students, representing 15 projects, will be competing in the Minnesota State History Day competition this weekend. The competition was held virtually on May 2.
"We are so proud of the work our students put in to make a competitive project, especially in a year full of other challenges," said Social Studies teacher Jennifer Androsky. "These students who qualified for state went above and beyond simply meeting class requirements to compete at State History Day. We saw improvements in writing style, research ability, citations, analysis of primary sources, and more."
