Maggie L. Walker Governor’s School’s supporting resources enable our students to engage in curricular and co- and extra-curricular opportunities beyond that which are typically available in high school.  Such opportunities include an expansive slate of dual-enrollment university and AP courses; AP assessments; local, state, national, and international learning experiences; notable speakers; contemporary equipment and technology; athletic support, etc.

We are especially proud to offer such opportunities to each student based on their own interests and without regard to ability to pay.  For more information, please contact our Director, Dr. Jeff McGee [email protected]; our Assistant Director for Curriculum and Instruction, Dr. Wendy Ellis [email protected] or your child’s counselor:  Grade 9, Mr. Karl Zweerink (Coordinator) [email protected], Grade 10 and 11, Ms. Joy Davis [email protected]; Grade 12 (Last Name A-L) Ms. Penny Deck [email protected]; Grade 12 (Last Name M-Z) Dr. Rachel Loving [email protected].IMG_0405
