Collaboration Opportunity – REQUEST for National History Day Judges
The Baltimore Leadership School for young women is seeking NHD judges. This is their first year participating in the National History Day competition. The Maryland Humanities recommended GBHA and BNHA as a possible resource for judges.
They’re planning on having a 2 day competition on Wednesday February 14th and Thursday February 15th. Judges will be needed from 8:45am (presentations start at 9) until 3:30pm (last presentation ends at 3pm) both days. They are e providing lunch from 10:45am-12:15pm both dates (this will also be a break from presentations) and snacks throughout the day.
They are hoping to secure the same judges for both days to provide continuity in the judging but if you can only commit to one day they will work with you.
The most important thing is that we participate to make their efforts worthwhile.
