Principals, counselors, and teachers have the important role of nominating students from their schools to participate in Governor’s School for Excellence. Schools are asked to nominate the most qualified students, keeping these things in mind:

  • Please announce the program to all eligible tenth grade students.
  • Nomination does not necessarily result in selection. Students nominated for Visual and Performing Arts must audition. Academic students from private and parochial schools applications are reviewed by the Private School Selection Committee.
  • Please follow the procedures outlined in the Principal’s Packet.
  • Please pay close attention to submission deadlines.
