Saturday/Summer Enrichment Programs

Since 1988, William & Mary’s Center for Gifted Education (CFGE) has supported high-ability students through engaging, inquiry-based learning that fosters curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning. Through its Saturday Enrichment Programs (SEP), students in grades K–12 explore advanced topics in science, mathematics, humanities, and the arts. Led by passionate instructors, these courses challenge students to think critically, collaborate, and pursue self-directed discovery beyond the traditional classroom. Designed specifically for gifted and talented learners, CFGE programs encourage students to ask big questions, build confidence, and approach learning creatively. The Center is excited to expand these offerings with new Enrichment Programs that provide even more opportunities for exploration, skill-building, and connection with peers.

Summer Enrichment Program brings students together for a focused, experience built around curiosity, creativity, and active participation.

Each day, students will jump into hands-on activities, explore new ideas, and work alongside peers who are just as eager to learn and create. Our instructors guide the experience in a way that feels natural and engaging, giving students the space to ask questions, experiment, and think in new ways.

This format keeps the energy high while allowing enough time to dig deeper into topics, build connections, and see ideas come to life. It is a chance for students to step outside the usual routine and spend a few summer days learning in a way that feels fresh, interactive, and genuinely enjoyable.
