My Project

This prize laptop will go to the top achieving student who created the best argument for their chosen historical influencer. All 8th graders participate in this yearly history fair where they choose, research and argue the importance of a historical figure of their choice. Once completed, they will learn to present and defend why their influencer has helped influence history through their work and life.

The prize will help prepare the top achieving, hard-working scholar for high school and equip them with an extra tool to aid in their future success.
