This spring, a SCAPA Bluegrass student identified as profoundly gifted was accepted into the Davidson Young Scholars program, making a total of four current participants from Fayette County Public Schools.

Taylor Bagley joins Athena Kern of Wilburn Middle School, Bailey Knight of Maxwell Spanish Immersion Magnet School and Ethan Smith of Tates Creek High School in receiving individualized support designed to nurture them intellectually, socially and emotionally.
