Dr. Ron Ingle S.C. History Day Teachers' Award
Each year, a teacher from both divisions will be selected for the Dr. Ron Ingle S.C. History Day Teachers' Award.
The winning teachers will receive $500 for the time, expertise and energy they contribute to their students who participate in South Carolina History Day. They will also receive a commemorative box and their name on a plaque in the Coastal Carolina University History Department. The recipients are recognized during the South Carolina History Day State Contest.
