National History Day

Crosby ISD students will be participating in a state and national competition locally refered to as History Fair. This is conducted annually by National History Day, whose goal is to increase student knowledge and interest in history. Winners at the local level can go on to compete at the regional, state, and even national level. Winners at the national level are eligible to receive medals, scholarships, and monetary rewards.

Participation in this project is part of of our district effort to promote college and career readiness for our students. All seventh grade students, along with Pre-AP 8th and 9th students, will be participating in National History Day.
