Seniors Ronak Mistry and Jen Smith

Seniors  Ronak Mistry and Jen Smith know first hand what Governor’s School is all about. According to both students, it was the opportunity of a lifetime.

Last December, both students submitted their applications in the hopes they would be selected. Ronak became a finalist for the Governor's School of the Sciences to be held at Drew University and Jennifer was accepted to the Governor's School of the Arts which was held at The College of New Jersey.

Both students spent the better part of three weeks in an intensive academic experience honing their skills. The fact that these seniors were able to compete and be selected for this prestigious program will bode well for them at college application time.

If you are a junior this year and might be interested in being a candidate for the Governor’s School Program, stop by and see Mrs. Hatcher. More information will follow when the new applications are distributed to the high schools at the end of October. In the meantime, go up to Ronak and Jen and ask them about their experience this summer. I know they would be very happy to take the time to chat.
