Celebrating the MLWGS Alumni at Showcase on September 27

What is Alumni Showcase? At Alumni Showcase, a biennial event begun in 2012, graduates return to campus to share their experiences, wisdom, and perspectives on life after high school. Whether they attended the Governor’s School in its first decade, when it was located at Thomas Jefferson High School, or recently walked the halls of the historic Maggie Walker building, speakers reflect in seminar-style sessions on lessons learned from their unique educational and professional journeys. 

Our gratitude is extended to Ginger O’Neil of the MLWGS Foundation for laying the groundwork and coordination assistance of this major event for the Dragons!

We look forward to hearing from our alumni and to learn about their career pathways.
