WHS Junior Won State National History Day Competition
On Saturday, April 7, 2018, WHS junior Arda Cataltepe won the state National History Day competition, held at Winchester High School, for his website entitled “The Room Where it Happened,” an in-depth analysis of the Compromise of 1790. In addition, he was given a special award by the Boston Athenaeum Library for the best use of local special collections. You can view Arda’s website here: http://59869599.nhd.wee
Before competing in the state competition, Arda won the Northeast regionals in March, and now gets to compete nationally in Washington D.C., from June 10-14.
BIG credit and thanks goes to WHS history teacher, Monny Cochran, who served as Arda’s independent study advisor and supported Arda in completing his National History Day project.
