The projects on these pages are the work of talented History students from across the state of Texas who won awards in the 2013 Texas History Day competitions. The winners go on to National History Day, which is being held in Washington DC on June 9-13.

Texas History Day is sponsored by the Texas State Historical Association, the source of many great historical resources, including The Handbook of Texas Online and Teaching Texas.

These projects were made available by the students in cooperation with the TSHA. They were produced under fair use copyright guidelines governing educational use and are exhibited here as exemplary student academic work; they may not be reproduced, reposted, or sold in any way.
