At National History Academy, we believe that history is the most important resource to understand where we are as a country today. Knowing where we’ve been gives us the tools to prepare for a better future. In July 2021, the Academy will give you an opportunity to explore the sources of many of America’s current challenges through meaningful discussions with fellow students from around the country. Join us this summer to study defining moments in our history while relating those moments to the important issues we face as a nation today. We have unlimited scholarships so all can attend our online programs this summer.
