The Governor’s Scholars Program is a summer residential program for outstanding high school students in Kentucky who are rising seniors. The program’s mission is to enhance Kentucky’s next generation of civic and economic leaders. Selection for the program is highly competitive, with an application process similar to that of prestigious colleges and universities.

Clinton County High School senior Zackary Garmon was selected to attend GSP with more than 380 other scholars at Morehead State University campus from June 21 to July 25. Students attend classes in a learning friendly environment on weekdays, while they had weekends off.
