12 BRVGS students, staff members and parents visited the Va State Capitol this past Tuesday, for a day-long "Capitol Day" event sponsored by the Friends of Virginia Governor's Schools (FOVGS). Students from most of Virginia's 19 Governor's Schools met with their delegates and senators, toured the State Capitol Building, and watched the House of Delegates in action. Click on "Capitol Day Photo Album" to see more of these activities.
The purpose of FOVGS is to educate legislators about the mission, activities, accomplishments and needs of Governor's Schools across the Commonwealth. Parents who might wish to volunteer for FOVGS activities should contact BRVGS Director Marc Carraway at mcarraway@brvgs.k12.va.us.
