Vikan's National History Day Competition Club

Picture of a Knight and the world

Join the Vikan National History Day Club: Champion the Past!

Are you ready to dive into the past, uncover hidden stories, and showcase your research on a massive stage? The Vikan National History Day (NHD) Competition Club is officially forming, and we are looking for dedicated historians to join our ranks! This prestigious club gives you the chance to dive deep into historical topics and compete at regional, state, and even national levels.

As Vikan Knights, we don't just study history—we defend the truth and honor the stories of those who came before us. We bring our shield of core values to every archive, interview, and presentation:

  • Adaptable: We shift our research strategies when sources dry up, pivot our arguments based on new evidence, and handle judges' feedback with grace.
  • Respectful: We honor the diverse perspectives of historical figures, cite our sources ethically, and support our teammates during intense competitions.
  • Motivated: We push through hours of research and project building because we are driven by curiosity and the thrill of the win.
  • Ownership: We take complete pride in our projects, completely managing our own arguments, designs, and historical theses.
  • Responsible: We stick to strict competition deadlines, care for research materials, and proudly represent Vikan at every level of competition.

Info Night: Wednesday October 9th from 4:45 to 5:15 in Ms Baran's Room
