 The Montgomery Scholars Honors Program will host an information session for prospective high school juniors, seniors, and their parents on Saturday, October 31 at 11 a.m. The session will be held in the Theatre Arts Arena at the Rockville Campus. The Montgomery Scholars program strives to recruit an academically talented and highly diverse community of students, who reflect the rich diversity of backgrounds within the Montgomery County population.
Current Scholars will share information about their experiences in the program. This annual event also includes the Cambridge slideshow, created and narrated by the Scholars to share and reflect on their journey studying abroad at the University of Cambridge in England. In addition, the session will highlight the many paths Scholars have embarked upon over the past eleven years, including transfer success at competitive four-year colleges and universities; global service and social responsibility at home and abroad - independently in countries such as Senegal, Kenya, Peru, and Bangladesh and in organizations such as the Peace Corps, Doctors without Borders and Teach for America; graduate studies in fields ranging from medicine to law to engineering; professional experiences in areas such as education, politics, healthcare, computer systems, accounting, and archeology.
