Aubrey Thomas, Brooklyn Dvorak, and Veida Liggett participated in the recent Kansas History Day Contest. This contest is a platform for students to show their research on a topic in History. The theme for the topics changes every year, this year's theme was significant changes in history. The group's project was about the Civilian Conservation Corp during the 1930s. The Civilian Conservation Corp was a New Deal Program to which young men (high school age) joined up. It gave them some money to send home, a warm bed, and three square meals a day.
The group competed in the senior group, did well, but just missed out making the next level.
