Ben Kingrey accepted to Governor's School for Entrepreneurs Adair County High School junior Ben Kingrey has been accepted to the Governor's School for Entrepreneurs for summer 2024. Ben is the son of Jonathan and Crystal Kingrey. GSE is an intensive, non-traditional three-week Summer Startup program designed to develop entrepreneurial skills with lifelong impact. The goal is to help foster economic growth across the commonwealth by supporting the business dreams of students who have the drive and passion to be entrepreneurs and create jobs in Kentucky. Ben says, "Business and entrepreneurship as a whole have always been a deep passion of mine. Being a driving force for my local FBLA chapter for years, all of that hard work came together for this amazing opportunity." Adair County FBLA director J.R. Thompson has seen Ben's work firsthand. Mr. Thompson says, "Ben Kingrey is an extremely bright and talented young leader driven towards reaching success in business and entrepreneurship. Being selected into the prestigious Governors School for Entrepreneurship is a huge accomplishment and we are grateful that Ben was chosen to represent Adair County High School. He has most certainly earned this amazing opportunity. We are so proud of Ben's accomplishments in reaching his dreams and goals." Kentucky was one of the first states in the nation to create a Governor's School for Entrepreneurs. To date, 941 high school students have graduated from GSE's summer program since it began in 2013. Graduates qualify for millions of dollars in scholarships at colleges and universities across Kentucky. Dozens of businesses have been launched in Kentucky by GSE graduates and several patents have been filed. After high school, Ben says he plans on attending the University of Kentucky and majoring in Finance, "with my overall objective being able to run and manage my own business."
