Palm Beach County National History Day Results

The eighth annual PB County National History Day was held today, January 4, 2010, at Seminole Ridge High School. The whole campus buzzed with the excitement that comes from knowing that many of the projects on display today were headed for Tallahassee in May for the State Competition and possibly Washington, DC in June for the Nationals.

The Palm Beach County NHD Awards Program will be January 19, 2010 at the Palm Beach County Historical Museum in downtown West Palm Beach.
