Governor’s School

NC Governor’s School is open to high school seniors and in some instances juniors. NC Governor’s
school recognizes students for excellence in both academics and the Arts. Students must follow a rigorous
application and interview process to be accepted to NC Governor’s School. Once accepted students are
invited to participate in a five week summer session on a college campus to develop their skills or talents.
The NC Governor’s school application process begins in the fall of each school year. Each high school has
a Governor’s School contact to help communicate the process with students. 

North Carolina Association for Scholastic Activities

Iredell-Statesville Schools is a registered member of NCASA. This association provides opportunities for
our middle schools to participate in various academic and talent competitions. Some of these competitions
include Quill, Forensics, Show Choir, and Dance. Each individual school determines and registers for the
competitions they wish to compete in.  

Summer Enrichment Camps

Every April the Gifted Department shares information with schools and parents regarding a variety of
summer enrichment camps. We offer approximately 17 summer camp experiences that range from culinary
arts, music, robotics, engineering, and much more! Our camps typically run the first two weeks of summer
and are an approximate cost of $20.00 per student/per camp.

To find out more about these enrichment offerings,
please contact your child’s school.
