The Commonwealth Governor’s School (CGS) is an academic year governor’s school that provides gifted and highly motivated high school students with a challenging, differentiated, and interdisciplinary program in English, science, mathematics, and social studies. Based on a school-within-a-school model, this half-day program utilizes real-time interactive audio/visual technology, field trips, and team teaching to create a regional community of learners. Students from King George, Spotsylvania and Stafford school divisions are offered a rigorous program of study while interacting with other talented students in the region. Students from participating high schools travel to one of the five CGS sites.
