Governor's Honors Program

Hello 11th and 10th Grade DECA Families ~
The window is now open for applying to the Governor's Honors Program. Please see attached for the application and list of qualifying categories. The local applications are due on October 24, 2017 from 1:00-5:00 in the AIC Foyer. Remember that the application must include a completed Teacher Nomination form. We have these available at DECA. So, interested scholars will need to let an administrator know which professor will be writing this recommendation. Please be sure to give that DECA professor enough time to complete it before the 10/24/17 deadline.

Basic requirements include:

  • Students shall be nominated to the state in only one subject area.
  • Students nominated for the 2017 program as sophomores who did not participate in the program last summer may be nominated for the 2018 program. This includes students who were selected as finalists in 2017 but declined the opportunity to participate last summer.
  • An official transcript of each nominee’s high school grades must be submitted electronically by the appropriate school official.
  • Be a current sophomore or junior.
