Andy Yang, Tyler Sturtevant, and Lindsey Mains

Wesleyan School is pleased to announce that Wesleyan juniors Lindsey Mains, Tyler Sturtevant, and Andy Yang have been invited to study in the prestigious Georgia Governor’s Honors Program (GHP) at Berry College in Rome this June and July.

“At GHP, our Wesleyan students will be provided with academic, cultural, and social enrichments in a community of like-minded individuals from throughout the state,” said Wesleyan Director of College Advising Ken Connor. “The program will help them become better critical thinkers, innovators, and leaders.”

GHP offers twelve majors that are characterized as either academic majors or performing arts majors. This summer, Mains will focus her study on communicative arts, Sturtevant on theatre, and Yang on mathematics.

The Governor’s Honors Program is fully funded by the state with no cost to attendees beyond travel. Over 3,000 students were nominated to the state level competition and over 1,600 participated in this year’s state interview and/or audition process with approximately 650 ultimately chosen to attend, which represents one-fourth of 1% of eligible sophomores and juniors in the state.

Wesleyan School is a Christian, independent K-12 college preparatory school located in Peachtree Corners, Georgia. At the start of the 2018-2019 school year, Wesleyan enrolled 1,177 students from throughout the metropolitan Atlanta area. To learn more about the school, visit www.wesleyanschool.org.
