Saturday Enrichment at William & Mary

The Center for Gifted Education is accepting registrations for the Spring 2016
Saturday Enrichment Program (SEP). The Spring program will be held February 20
to March 19, 2016 in Williamsburg, consisting of 5 Saturday sessions. SEP is
an academically challenging program with an emphasis on inquiry-based learning
for students enrolled in grades K–12. It is not meant to supplant the regular
school curriculum; rather, it recognizes the importance of allowing able
youngsters to explore additional specialized areas of science, mathematics,
humanities, and the arts. The program’s brochure is accessible through the
Center’s website at
http://education.wm.edu/centers/cfge/precollegiate/sep/index.php. If you have
any questions, please contact the Precollegiate Learner Program office at (757) 221-6198
or sep@wm.edu.
