“Gov School was a once in a lifetime experience for me. At first I was leery on what I had gotten myself into, but the friends I met and things I learned made it the best experience ever. Gov School helped me realize what career field I'd like to go into and provided me with a summer of fun activities.” - Vanessa-2005

Typical Governor's School assignments include reading, journaling, conducting research and collaborative projects. Evenings and weekends are reserved for recreational and fine arts activities. There is one mid-session break over the July 4th holiday.
