National History Day Rulebook
Student Conduct:
- Students are expected to conduct themselves, both in person and online, in a manner that brings credit to themselves, their schools, and the affiliates they represent.
- Chaperones are responsible for the behavior of the students in their charge.
- National History Day is concerned not only for the safety and well-being of students, but also for upholding the interests of parents/guardians, teachers, school principals, and the many supporters who have a vested interest in the students' actions, conduct, and participation.
Students: Contact your teacher for additional information.
Teachers: Contact the regional coordinator for additional information.
