This prestigious Governor's School in North Carolina is open to rising seniors only, with exceptions made for rising juniors in the performing/visual arts area. For six weeks the state-funded program offers gifted teens a curriculum that explores "the most recent ideas and concepts" in a number of interdisciplinary areas.

The performing/visual arts disciplines include art, choral and instrumental music, dance, and drama.

My eldest daughter was a "Govie" at West in 2001. I watched her grow more in that 8 weeks than I did the rest of her High school career. She was prepared for the level of discussion she would encounter throughout her college career.

GS is the best thing you could ever do during the summer before your senior (sometimes junior) year. I attended GSE in 2005 and it helped me to really look into things before I made decisions on them and that can really make your life experiences better. If you have the chance to attend please do!

The Governor's School is the most incredible thing you could possibly do next to curing a disease and/or performing your own oral surgery. Trust me, whatever effort you put into getting accepted into the GS program will be rewarded. I went to GS West last summer and I am still making at least one reference to something I did there a day.

I attended Governor's School East this summer and it was the best experience I had ever had. It is definitely worth 6 weeks of your summer. I strongly suggest any rising junior or senior to try for this wonderful experience. You will make life long friends and will learn fascinating things.

Governor's School is amazing and I'm speaking from first hand experience. It is an extremely hard program to get into, but if you make it you will have the time of your life.
