Juniors Caroline Ho, Aislinn Smeader and Sanjay Long Selected For Governor's School for Excellence

Rising Archmere juniors Caroline Ho, Aislinn Smeader and Sanjay Long recently completed the Governor's School for Excellence Program. The program, a one-week summer residential program that brings together academically and artistically talented Delaware high school students who have completed their sophomore year, ran the week of July 17-12, 2019. Caroline was selected for music (strings) and Aislinn was selected for art. Sanjay was the selected representative for the Academic portion of the Delaware Governor’s School. Students live in residence halls on the Newark campus and attend either the academic program--consisting of discussions, lectures, debates, and films revolving around a specific theme--or the visual and performing arts program, which provides tutorial instruction with a noted artist and culminates in a performance or public display of the students' work. Caroline, Aislinn and Sanjay were all nominated to participate in the Governor's School by Archmere, in a competitive application process.

Delaware Governor’s School for Excellence is sponsored by the Office of the Governor of the State of Delaware in cooperation with the Delaware Department of Education and the University of Delaware’s Division of Professional and Continuing Studies.
