Michelle Medawar '20 Selected to Participate in the NJ Scholars Program

The NJ Scholars Program is an intensive academic program for highly intelligent and motivated students who are rising seniors. Every high school in the state of New Jersey is permitted to submit a maximum of two applications. Then, out of hundreds of applicants, only 39 students from the entire state are accepted each year.

For five weeks during the summer, the Scholars live at the Lawrenceville School while they explore a topic from an interdisciplinary perspective. This year's topic will be 'Mind and Body: The Future of Being Human.'

The missionof the NJ Scholars Program is to engage and challenge students by creating an intense, interdisciplinary intellectual experience. The Scholars participate in lectures and small-group seminars, have extensive reading assignments, and pursue research at world-class libraries and museums.

This year, MKA is proud to announce that Michelle Medawar '20 has been accepted into the highly competitive NJ Scholars Program. We congratulate her on this remarkable accomplishment!
