Student Enrichment Experience (SEE) Seminars for Gifted and Advanced Students

The Student Enrichment Experience (SEE) program provides innovative and thought-provoking seminars for advanced and gifted students throughout Lancaster and Lebanon counties. Various seminars throughout the school year are designed for students, Grades 4-12. Seminars are available to gifted and academically advanced students in participating school districts or nonpublic schools.

SEE Seminars offer a wide variety of topics and experiences not readily available in the regular classroom. When aligned with student academic strengths, they can supplement a gifted student’s individualized education plan and can build upon the gifted services provided by the school district. Seminars enrich the curriculum while offering social and emotional support for students with intense interests and curiosity. Through highly engaging experiences designed to challenge them academically, students work with peers from across Lancaster and Lebanon counties. Connecting directly with experts who offer in-depth instruction, hands-on activities, and personal insight, students benefit from the unique “beyond the classroom” environment which also offers valuable career exploration and support in building vital interpersonal skills needed for career success. Documentation from these highly relevant experiences can be added to individual College and Career Readiness student portfolios.
