The Governor’s Scholars program strives to enhance Kentucky’s next generation of civic and economic leaders and to create models of educational excellence for teachers and students.  

• 2009 honorees from FCPS

The five-week summer program, designed for outstanding students who have completed their junior year of high school, provides academic and personal growth through a balance of strong liberal arts offerings with a full co-curricular and residential life experience on a college campus.  

All subjects are taught in a non-traditional, interdisciplinary mode. Noted scientists, writers and thinkers and business, government and education leaders visit, speak and serve as role models, while student productions, publications, experiments and field trips enhance the curriculum. 

Selected students attend the program free of charge. For more details, go to www.kygsp.org/.
