Sophomore Accepted to Missouri Scholars Academy

Anagi Pieris (sophomore) has been accepted to the 2021 Missouri Scholars Academy. Since 1985, the University of Missouri has hosted the Scholars Academy for 330 gifted students from across the state — all rising juniors. Each summer at the Academy, scholars take two courses over three weeks on Mizzou’s campus (although the experience will be virtual this year), hear speakers from across the nation, and connect with gifted kids from schools of all types – rural, urban, suburban, private, and public. Westminster nominated Anagi based on her classroom performance, teacher recommendations, test scores, and written work. We are proud to have Anagi represent our school at this summer’s Missouri Scholars Academy.
