NHS GO TO STATE - Pictured are LHS National History Day students who attended the State Competition. This year's theme was 'Rights & Responsibilities in History.' The students explored how rights and responsibilities have shaped historical events and societal structures. They then chose their historical topic related to the theme and conducted extensive primary and secondary research at libraries, archives, museums, historic sites, and more. After analyzing and interpreting their source material, they created a plan to present their findings to their peers, teachers, and school board before moving on to the regional and state competition. LISD students presented original research papers, exhibits, performances, websites, and documentaries to judges.
