Laura Royse selected for Tennessee Governors School for arts Click on headline for full story with photo Special ColumbiaMagazine.com story Laura Royse, a junior at Farragut High School in Knoxville, TN, has been selected for the 2010 Tennessee Governor's School for the Arts, which will be held from June 6 - July 2, 2010, on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro. Laura is the daughter of David and Molly Royse of Knoxville, Tennessee, and the granddaughter of James and Zona Royse of Columbia, KY. She is principal bassoonist for the Farragut High School Symphonic Band, and has been a member of the East Tennessee School Band and Orchestra Association's All-State East Senior Clinic for the past two years. The Tennessee Governor's School for the Arts is a four-week residency summer program for high school students gifted in music, visual art, theatre, dance, and filmmaking. Of the over 1300 applicants each year, GSFTA accepts a total of 230 students in those five arts areas, for an acceptance rate of roughly 18%. Since 1985 over 7,000 of Tennessee's gifted and talented students have been afforded the opportunity to attend the School for the Arts. Coming from every geographical region of Tennessee, the selected students show true talent and motivation. Admissions for music, art, theatre, dance, and filmmaking are made as a result of auditions or submissions of portfolios and interviews. The Governor's School faculty consists of outstanding visual and performing artists and educators from across the nation. Many of the faculty members hold terminal degrees from the most demanding schools in the world, such as Yale, Juilliard, Eastman, and the Moscow Conservatory. The highly acclaimed professional artists that instruct the students include dancers, actors, and vocalists from New York to Los Angeles and around the world. Several of these artists are also School for the Arts alumni. Hand-picked by the chairs of each discipline, most faculty members reside on campus during the four weeks of the program, developing lifelong mentoring relationships with the students. The Tennessee Governor's School for the Arts strives to provide a rounded educational experience for students. In addition to the core studies for each area of concentration, each participant is exposed to other art disciplines through guest lectures, exhibits, concerts, and films during required evening programs seven days a week. The School believes that these programs serve to nurture the skills that students already have while encouraging new ideas, expanding students' perceptions, and enhancing critical thinking about the ways that art relates to life. Through these practices, the School for the Arts is able to cultivate a student's individual talent, boosting them to the forefront of their disciplines as they prepare to venture forth into today's competitive arts community.
