Judge Student Projects
"I liked being judged because I could share all the hard work I did." - Vermont History Day student
Judging at Vermont History Day is a great way to give back to students across the state! Judges are responsible for evaluating student projects the day of the event, and determining which projects are eligible for the National Contest in June. Working in teams of three, judges interact with the student historians, asking them questions about their projects and research. At the end of the contest, judges provide written feedback for each student, providing encouragement and validation of the student's work.

Volunteer at the Contest
Volunteers are also crucial for keeping the contest day running smoothly. Volunteers help with student registration, hallway monitoring, and other tasks that arise during the day.
