Since 2005, The National WWII Museum has produced an annual High School WWII Quiz Bowl each spring.  Teams from schools across Southeast Louisiana and as far away as Alabama and Georgia have competed in this fun and educational event.  Quiz questions cover topics as varied as the war itself and WWII-themed teamwork challenges following each round give students a chance to earn extra credit points.

 

In 2008, the Museum teamed up with Cox Communications to televise the event, adding a live Championship Round for the top two teams.  These programs have been nominated for an Emmy Award in the category of educational programming and have received numerous educational television awards.

 

The Museum is pleased to have partnered again with Cox for
the 2010 WWII Quiz Bowl.
