Several Conway students received a very important e-mail on Thursday, March 10, regarding the 43rd annual Arkansas Governor’s School. Many high school juniors all across the state have officially been chosen to attend the STEM/liberal arts program that is annually held at Arkansas Tech University in Russellville, Arkansas. After completing a lengthy application that included many questions about academic or artistic achievements and interests and writing a detailed essay, several Conway High School students received the acceptance e-mail in their inboxes. AGS is held from July 5- August 1, and during this time, the program also contains a variety of interesting activities aside from the main attraction of STEM/liberal arts. Such activities include guest speakers, film showings, club activities, sports on the lawn, and trips to mind-expanding places such as Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville and the Clinton Library in Little Rock. Many CHS students are excited to attend this intellectually challenging program this summer to expand and challenge their knowledge about the universe as it has developed into what it is today and could be in the future. After being asked how they heard about the governor’s school and what they are excited to experience, junior Isabella Galloway states, “I heard about AGS through seniors who went the year before me. From hearing their experiences, I’m really looking forward to going and I know I’ll have lots of fun learning and making friends.” Junior Sarah Mulhearn provides her opinions by saying, “I heard about governor’s school from a friend that went the previous summer, and I am very excited to go to governor’s school and learn and meet new people.” Arkansas Governor’s School is a program that is not often publicized in schools. However, after this summer, many CHS students will leave with many fun experiences to tell the younger generation of students.
