The Hall County School District on Tuesday announced that 12 students have been selected as finalists or alternates for the 2017 Georgia Governor's Honors Program, better known as GHP.
GHP is a residential summer program for gifted and talented high school juniors and seniors. Administered by the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement (GOSA), GHP will take place this year on the campus of Berry College in Rome. The 2017 program will be the 54th summer, making it the longest continually running program of its kind in the nation. More than 3,000 students from across the state applied and 1,700 students interviewed and auditioned in February.
Since the program is fully funded by the Georgia General Assembly, there is no charge for students to attend.
Students will begin their GHP adventure on June 18, 2017 and spend the next four weeks studying not only their major area of nomination, but also an additional area of interest.
