Happy Teacher Appreciation Week from @ncculture! DNCR is working every day to support teachers like Ms. Abbott and students like those pictured below from Rockingham Early College.
Clarissa, Zanyiah, & Audrey from Rockingham Early College discovered how vital regional museums, archives, and libraries are for helping to uncover the local stories that are often under-told. They will share this history on the national stage at the #NHD2024 National Contest!
NHD is able to offer 25 special prizes at the National Contest each year thanks to these generous sponsors. We appreciate their efforts to support students researching the history of immigration, equality, the military, presidencies, women, and more! THANK YOU! #NHD50
