Carrollton Junior High School recently issued the following announcement.
Nine Carrollton High School students who were nominated to compete at the state level for Governor’s Honors have cleared the next hurdle by being named semi-finalists.
Nine CHS students have been named semi-finalists for the Governor’s Honors Program.
The Governor’s Honors Program, known as GHP, is a four-week residential summer program for gifted and talented rising high school juniors and seniors. Students who attend public, private, and home schools are eligible for nomination in one of 20 subject areas.
Ella Barden, Belle Esslinger, Emma Harris, Isabel Keller, Edward Kenyon, Serena McGuinn, Tyler Ou, Sarah Scholl and Mark Zimmer represent more than half of the original pool of nominees for CHS. Ella, Isabelle and Edward will compete in Science, Serena and Tyler in Dance, Isabel in Communicative Arts, Emma and Mark in World Languages, and Sarah in Mathematics.
These students will now prepare for state, which also includes an application and personal interviews process. GHP finalists will be announced this spring and the program will be held June 19 through July 16 at Berry College in Rome.
Carrollton High School has a strong legacy of producing competitive GHP candidates. Last year, two of the 10 nominees cleared the next hurdle to be named semi-finalists. Of that cohort, Walker Camp was named a finalist and attended the program.
