Marshall County High School is proud to announce that three MCHS students have been selected to attend the Governor’s School for the Arts (GSA) this summer at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, KY.
Congratulations are in order for students Kaden Driver, Karly Jones, and Mia Jaco. Driver will be attending the program for Visual Art; Jones will attend the Musical Theatre program; and Jaco will attend for Instrumental Music, with her chosen instrument being the guitar.
Every summer, the GSA faculty of professional artists and educators guide over two hundred of Kentucky’s finest young artists through three weeks of incredibly intense (and incredibly fun) arts instruction. For three solid weeks, the students live, breathe, eat and sleep the arts. It’s a thrilling, often life-changing experience, as they meet new friends, explore their creativity, and discover new things about who they are and who they can be in the future.
GSA auditions & reviews the Commonwealth’s most promising high school sophomores and juniors in nine different arts disciplines: Architecture + Design, Creative Writing, Dance, Drama, Film + Photography, Instrumental Music, Musical Theatre, Visual Art and Vocal Music.
GSA is an arts education program of The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts. GSA is offered at no cost to the student, and is made available through funding from the state, as well as private fundraising.
The Marshall County School District would like to commend all three of these talented and committed students for their achievement. We wish them every continued success in their craft, and in life!
