Program Highlights

It has been said that Governor's School is an experience that cannot be understood through words. It is hard to explain just what happens during those four weeks in July that makes the month so special. Like the mystical city of Brigadoon, Governor's School rises from the mist once a year. Blending the experiences of faculty and staff from years past, the fresh voices of the newly-hired, and the energy of four hundred students, we create a community of learners that is unique yet connected with those who have come before and those who are yet to come.

Photo CD 

Governor's School is happy to provide to all participants a picture CD which includes a Quicktime movie version of the Memory Montage slideshow, hall and class "yearbook photos," as well as highlights from pictures taken throughout the month. (Copies are also available to school personnel who wish to use it for publicity purposes.) We hope to have it available at the reunion for students to pick up, and will mail it to those unable to attend.
