Ohio History Day

Engaging project-based, student-centered learning.

Ohio History Day, an affiliate and prerequisite to the award-winning National History Day program, asks students to be creative, collaborative, and think critically about history. By engaging students in research, this event provides an opportunity for students to practice cross-curricular learning and practical application, while developing public speaking skills. Students choose to write a paper, create a documentary, build and display an exhibit, write and perform a song or play, or create a website to be shared with an authentic audience of local historians and community partners.

Cincinnati Museum Center is proud to host Ohio History Day's Region 8 competition for Adams, Brown, Butler, Clermont, Clinton, Hamilton, Highland and Warren counties.

Region 8, Ohio History Day 2025

The 2025 theme is Rights and Responsibilities in History. Rights are the freedoms or privileges that people enjoy as members of society or simply as being humans. Responsibilities are expectations of individuals as members of society. This year's theme asks you to consider how they work together. A right can impact a responsibility, and a responsibility can impact a right.
