COLLEGE PARK, MD – May 12, 2025 – National History Day® (NHD) is proud to announce the teachers honored as the 2025 National History Day Teacher of the Year Award nominees. This year, teachers from all NHD affiliate programs were able to self-nominate for the award.

In addition to celebrating outstanding history scholarship and innovative classroom instruction, the 2025 Teachers of the Year will receive a $5,000 cash prize.
Each nominee for the National History Day Teacher of the Year Award is a teacher who demonstrates a commitment to engaging students in historical learning through the innovative use of primary sources, implementation of active learning strategies to foster historical thinking skills, and participation in the National History Day Contest. 71 educators are up for the award this year.
“National History Day’s 2025 Teacher of the Year Award nominees are outstanding history educators,” said NHD Executive Director Dr. Cathy Gorn. “At a time when history education programs are facing funding cuts and increased scrutiny, these teachers are in the trenches, teaching students about important historical events and engaging them with primary sources from local libraries and archives. I couldn’t be more proud of this year’s nominees.”
One national winner in the junior division and one national winner in the senior division will be selected by a committee of experienced teachers and historians and announced on Thursday, June 12, 2025, at the National History Day National Contest Awards Ceremony in College Park, Maryland.

Come support the Class of 2025 before heading to Pork in the Park! TWO opportunities to eat delicious food on Saturday!
The Art of Craft & Wellness took advantage of the nice weather yesterday to hide their kindness rocks they made in the community of Bangor. Each student created four kindness rocks that have inspirational words/designs on them. The goal of this project is to spread joy through art and to hopefully brighten someone's day who finds it. On the back of each rock is a QR code that links to the school's Facebook page so people who find the rocks can share the location and rehide if they want. Students have shared a few clues where you might find the rocks. Many of the rocks are hidden outdoors, but a couple rocks can be found indoors.
Congratulations to the Class of 2025!

From wrestling to the musical, FCCLA to trap, there was something for everyone. It was awesome to see so many students showing interest in finding new ways to connect with their interests and classmates.
A huge thank you to all the club advisors, coaches, and student leaders who helped make the event a success!
