History Day LA



History Day LA is an annual competition for students in grades 4-12 in LA County. They select a historical topic related to an annual theme and conduct extensive research in libraries, archives, and museums. They then present their conclusions and evidence through papers, exhibits, performances, documentaries, or websites.
