The school typically accepts around 400 students each year. Modeled after the Governor's School of North Carolina, AGS was founded by governor Bill Clinton in 1979. From 1979 until 2018, the program took place on the grounds of Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. On September 13, 2018, the Arkansas Board of Education voted to move the program to Arkansas Tech in Russellville, Arkansas. This decision was met with high criticism from past alumni, staff, and parents with over 2,500 signing a petition against the campus change. The program will be housed at Arkansas Tech for the 2019-2021 sessions. (en)
