Expectations
The Wyoming Seminary Upper School is a large community consisting of
students, faculty members, staff and constituent families. As in any functional
community, an atmosphere of cooperation, respect for self and for others and
good judgement are essential for healthy operation. It is expected that students
who choose to enroll at Wyoming Seminary make a good faith commitment to
respectful, responsible and honest standards of citizenship. Our students may be
held accountable for any actions that reflect negatively upon Wyoming
Seminary, regardless of time or place. These behavioral expectations apply to all
Sem students unless otherwise stated. Sem students and their families are
expected to understand and embrace the spirit as well as the letter of the
school’s standards of conduct.
Leadership of Student and Academic Affairs
Each class at Wyoming Seminary is governed and advised by a Class Dean. These school
leaders, in concert with the Dean of the Upper School, will be responsible for managing
academic affairs, programs and issues associated with students in their designated
grade. On matters of student social and academic affairs, Sem’s parents and students
should view the Class Dean and the student’s faculty advisor as their primary resource
people.
The leadership of student and academic affairs for the 2011 - 2012 school year will be
the following:
Freshman & Sophomore Class Dean:
