Bronxville High Students Win Awards at Regional National History Day Competition

A large group of smiling students and teachers pose outside a historic brick building, standing on wet pavement. The mood is lively and cheerful.

Bronxville High School freshmen and sophomores earned multiple awards at the regional level of the 2026 National History Day Competition, held on March 7 at St. Thomas Aquinas College. The top two winners in each category will advance to the state competition, which will be held on April 26 at SUNY Oneonta.

The students showcased their extensive historical research on this year’s theme, “Revolution, Reaction and Reform in History,” through one of five ways: paper, website, documentary, performance or exhibit. Their projects were evaluated by a panel of professional historians and educators.
