Metcalfe County student selected for entrepreneur summer program

EDMONTON, Ky. – A Metcalfe County student has been selected to attend the Governor’s School for Entrepreneurs Summer Startup program.

Aubrey Glass is a 17-year-old sophomore at Metcalfe County High School. She will spend three weeks at the University of Kentucky developing entrepreneurial skills and learning from successful businesspeople.

“I am so grateful for this amazing opportunity to expand my entrepreneurial skills while representing my school and community at GSE,” Glass said.

GSE is an intensive, non-traditional learning experience designed to 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.

Kentucky was one of the first states in the country 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.
