Laura Jones Named State Finalist for 24' Governor's Honors Program

Laura Jones has been selected to represent Apalachee High School as a 2024 State finalist for Biology/Enviromental Science in the Governor's Honors Program.

State Finalists will attend a four-week summer program at Georgia Southern University. 

Students spend approximately 27 hours a week in highly advanced classes in their fields, encompassing 20 areas of study. 

Nomination to the program is a multi-part process beginning at the school-system level with an exam in the students’ selected subject area. If students meet the cut-off score, they participate in a county-level interview, which determines the nominees who are invited to complete a state application. The Governor’s Office of Student Achievement selects a limited number of students to interview at the state level. Finalists are selected from this final group.

Congratulations Laura!
