Congratulations to Mrs. Stephanie Carr, who has been selected to participate in the prestigious Silent Heroes Research Project, a partnership between the National History Day Program and the American Battle Monuments Commission. As part of this honor, Mrs. Carr will conduct extensive research on a Vietnam War soldier who was killed in action and never returned home. Her work will be published in the summer of 2026 by the American Battle Monuments Commission, ensuring that this soldier’s sacrifice is remembered for generations to come.
Beyond honoring our nation’s history, Mrs. Carr plans to use this experience to inspire her students by modeling the skills of historical research and analysis. Her goal is to empower history students and National History Day participants with strategies that bring the past to life through meaningful inquiry and discovery.
