KERN COUNTY HISTORY DAY
Saturday, March 7, 2009
Ridgeview High School
The Individual in History: Actions and Legacies

---

WHAT IS HISTORY DAY?History Day in California is An exciting, history-based learning experience, for students in grades 4 through 12, who not only learn about issues, ideas, people and events in history, but they apply what they have learned through creative and original productions. Beyond simply memorizing names and dates and reporting on historical events, History Day students develop invaluable research and analytical skills as they process the information gathered through intensive research and draw their own conclusions about their topic’s significance in history.
