NHD Competition

As most of you know, Jayce and his classmate submitted a project about Kevlar to NHD, also known as National History Day, which he came in second place here in Sigonella. His project was then submitted to the next level in Vicenza (Venice, Italy). Well, today he came home with great news…. He WON FIRST PLACE!

Furthermore, his project is being submitted to the judges in Germany and he gets to travel to Germany for a week to represent his school and the district. Upon winning in Germany, his project could be selected to go to the National level in Washington DC. He is beside himself with happiness, which is very much deserved for his hard work!! Way to go JAYCE! We are so proud of your achievement!
