To create the museum , each student chose a topic that is relevant to one of the time periods . Topics range from buildings , people , activities or objects . Students research their topics , draft essays , present to their classmates and create 3-D models that serve as a visual representation of their projects .
During the museum , student visitors stop by each exhibit and hear about the display and topic from a sixth-grade presenter before having their museum “ passport ” stamped .
Inductees will be announced in June and recognized during the Annual Sports Hall of Fame dinner in the fall . Former inductees are encouraged to attend . Nomination forms are available on the district ’ s website www . nhsd . net or by calling the Athletics & Activities Office at 412.318.1438 .
