The Georgia Ready Summer Institute is accepting applications. Occurring July 9-14, 2024, the Georgia Ready Summer Institute is a one-week, cohort-based residential program for high-achieving underrepresented and underserved high school students in Georgia entering their senior year.
As part of the experience, selected GRSI Scholars will begin exploring topics such as their desired research interests, connections between their interests and career pathways, as well as the impact research and innovation have upon entrepreneurial and commercialization endeavors across the state. Additionally, attendees will glimpse what life as a UGA scholar could be like, through living in a campus residence hall, eating at award-winning dining facilities, touring the Athens campus and external research facilities – specifically the Marine Extension campus on Skidaway Island.

Online AP Review
The DHS Library Media Center subscribes to the Peterson's Test Prep database from Gale (link below). This database contains practice tests for the PSAT, SAT, ACT, & AP tests. Students will need to log in using the Gale password, and then they will be prompted to create their own account. Once a student has created their account, they can then access the practice tests & even self-paced guided study.
Please stop by the Library Media Center for the password. (Hint: It's a Gale database, so it uses the Gale password!)
