Letter from the Director

Dear Parents,

I would like to welcome you and your child to the Wesleyan Summer Gifted Program.   The year 2026 marks our 43rd year of operation and my 8th year as Director of the Program.

Our returning and new campers this year are a group of bright, motivated young people.  In this program we meet gifted children's need for academic curiosity and autonomy, increased rigor, advanced content, and faster paced instruction.   Recognizing that even among the gifted there are a wide range of experiences and abilities, our faculty differentiate their instruction to meet the needs of the gifted & talented students on their rosters.  

It is our hope that your child will find his/her participation in the Wesleyan Summer Gifted Program full of rich experiences that will inspire their love of learning—both inside and outside the classroom, and throughout life.   If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us via email (sgp@wvwc.edu) or phone (304-473-8330).  It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome those of you who are new and those of you who are returning to our program.

Dr. Tracey DeLaney, Director
