Governor’s School for Tourism

by

Good afternoon,

The West Virginia Department of Education and the West Virginia Department of Tourism are recruiting heavily for the Governor’s School for Tourism. It is very important for every county to be represented in this school as students will be serving as ambassadors for Tourism in our state. We need your help. Any 9th and 10th grade student may apply for this school. Please have conversations with all freshmen and sophomores and encourage them to apply.

The dates for 2024 are June 20-June 29. This is honestly an opportunity of a lifetime for students. We’re going whitewater rafting, staying at WV State Parks, and visiting all 9 of the travel regions in WV. We’ll be traveling on charter buses and it’s all free!

Please help us recruit in your county. Share the information with all students, parents, teachers, principals, and school counselors.

This exploration of WV will not disappoint!

The applications may be found on our website along with all other relevant information. The deadline to apply is April 26, 2024.
