The Piedmont Governor's School for Mathematics, Science, and Technology is one of Virginia's 18 state-initiated magnet Governor's Schools. It is a half-day school program where 11th and 12th grade students take advanced classes in the morning (receiving their remaining classes from their home high school.)

Students at PGSMST have the opportunity to earn an Associates Degree through Danville Community College while enrolled at the Governor's School.

The School does not have a classroom facility of its own. Instead, students travel to the Institute for Advanced Learning and Research or Patrick Henry Community College to take courses offered by the program.

HistoryBefore The Piedmont Governors School for Mathematics Science and Technology, it was commonly called the GSGET (Governors School for Global Economics and Technology.)
