Think You Know Who Might Shine?
You Might Be Surprised!
You know the student who lights up for history, the one you immediately picture thriving in a competition like this. But there may be others who surprise you.
That's why your school registration gives every 6th-8th grade student the chance to compete. Give them the opportunity and see who rises to the challenge!

There’s barely enough time to do everything you’re already responsible for—much less the cool things you wish you could do with your students.
That's why we designed the Great History Challenge to require very little extra work from teachers. We'll give you what you need to get your students started, and the online school competition takes just 30 minutes.
