Victory? Yes, but it's not quite over...

We were victorious in preserving the Teaching American History Grant Program (TAH) in the federal government's 2011 budget. As NCHE has pointed out, it shows the "the strength of NCHE's membership and their willingness to step up and be counted on these issues." We at History Education Hawaii concur.


TAH was kept alive when numerous other programs have gone by the wayside. We have friends from various sectors and across party lines who responded positively to our voices. Our efforts reiterated that the National Council for History Education and allied organizations such as History Education Hawaii are "leading in teaching and learning history."


It's not quite over.


The 2012 federal budget is upon us. We will need to fight to keep TAH alive in this budget. Both the House and Senate are still working on ESEA and we need to continue our place at the table by working with them to ensure the place of history education.


Take a few moments to thank your Senator and House members for helping on this.
