National History Academy Online will offer four one-week sessions built around Harvard Business School Professor David Moss’s case-based “History of American Democracy” curriculum, with an average of three hours of classroom time each day. In addition to the cases, students will make online visits to two important historic sites and hear from nationally known speakers. Over 1,000 full scholarships are available!

National History Academy Online will offer two two-week sessions for rising 8^th and 9th-grade students. Students will make virtual interactive visits to three major historic sites each week, study major themes of our history and tie them directly to issues we are facing as a country today.
