Three JCSS Students Named GHP Finalists
Three students within the Jackson County School System have been named finalists for the prestigious Governor's Honors Program.
East Jackson High School's Nyasia Kebreau and Jackson County High School's Mackenzie Hagerty and Logan Wagner will each take part in the four-week long summer program at Georgia Southern University.
Kebreau will study Theatre while Hagerty and Wagner will each study music.
The Governor's Honors Program hosts talented rising juniors and seniors for the four-week long residential program at GSU, where instruction is significantly different from high school instruction and is designed to provide students with academic, cultural and social enrichment. The GHP program works to develop global thinkers, innovators and leaders.
Being named a GHP finalist is extremely difficult. There are approximately 250,000 eligible students from throughout the state, and only .264 percent of those students are named finalists for the program.
