Michael Benjamin (Mathematics/Cedar Shoals) and Letta Veeder (World Languages/Clarke Central) are designated as alternates.

GHP is a residential summer program for gifted and talented high school students who will be rising juniors and seniors during the program. The program is designed to provide enrichment in the student’s area of talent so they can become the next generation of global critical thinkers, innovators, and leaders.
