School of Education

Sheldon Institute is a 2-week educational enrichment program for students entering grades 2 through 10 that runs each summer on campus and is designed to meet the academic and cultural needs of motivated and creative students.  Novice students, grades 2-4, have a set program that includes art projects, science, language, history, cultural appreciation and also have daily swim time.  The older students choose four different daily workshops, emphasizing problem solving and critical thinking skills in the arts, communication, cultural appreciation, science, technology, writing, and more.  The institute offers small class sizes, projects chosen to engage young learners, and dynamic teachers that entice students to return summer after summer.  It is co-sponsored by Team Sheldon and the School of Education with support from the Tarandi Foundation, and for the fifth year, is directed by Ms. Kathleen Bartley, recently retired from the Central Square School District.  For more information, contact Candy Rasbeck in the School of Education Dean's Office (201 Culkin Hall, 315-312-2103).
