More than 700 students throughout West Virginia completed an application for the WV Governor's Association for Mathematics and Science 2017. Only 65 eighth grade students were selected for the program with Abigail Bishop being one of the chosen. Ten students from the 8th grade class at Mount View High filled out applications. Abigail will represent McDowell County and Mount View High respectfully and proudly. She will attend the program for two weeks at West Virginia State University starting on July 10th. This program allows students to research ways to build a sustainable future, collaborate with students across the state, and further knowledge.
