The Sheldon Institute is an educational enrichment program held on SUNY Oswego’s main campus for children entering grades 2-10. The program is comprised of two 1-week, full-day sessions taught by college professors, public school teachers, and experienced practitioners. Children will engage in an academic-based curriculum that includes STEM, leadership, career development and creative activities. A complimentary box lunch is included each day, and childcare until 5:30 PM will be provided if needed.

The program contains four divisions: Novice (grades 2&3), Intermediate (grades 4&5), Junior (grades 6&7), and Senior (grades 8-10). Due to COVID-19, each division capacity is limited.

Support for the Sheldon Institute for Barbara Shineman Scholars program is provided by the Richard S. Shineman Foundation, the Tarandi Foundation, and SUNY Oswego. For more information or program related questions, please email: [email protected]
