HONORS FOR BLUE DEVIL SWIMMERS
Congratulations to Katie Wilson who was recently accepted into the prestigious Governor's School! Katie will join fellow Blue Devil Katie McIver in this intensive college preparatory program. One of 15 Fluvanna County students accepted, the rigorous application/selection process involves a lengthy review a school transcripts, test scores, personal statements and applications. We are extremely proud of her.
Governor's Schools give gifted students academic and visual and performing arts opportunities beyond those normally available in the students' home schools. Students are able to focus on a specific area of intellectual or artistic strength and interest and to study in a way that best suits the gifted learner's needs. Each program stresses non-traditional teaching and learning techniques. For example, small-group instruction, hands-on-experiences, research, field studies, or realistic or artistic productions are major elements in the instructional design at all schools. Students become scientists, writers, artists, and performers as they work with professional mentors and instructors.
Five Blue Devils named to the High School All-State Team! Brook Reynard, Mike Jewell, Kurt Housh, Sherif Ibrahim and Tom Calhoun have been named to the All-State Team based on outstanding performances at the State Championship. Congratulations men!
