The Heely Scholars Program begins with a two-week boarding seminar in archival research for rising Fifth Formers who have demonstrated a keen interest and ability in the study of American history. The program introduces students to primary research from the School’s collection and local research institutions, addressing topics that place Lawrenceville within the historic context of national and global events. Heely Scholars are subsequently enrolled in an Advanced Research Seminar to expand their summer research into a senior thesis.

This program is run by Lawrenceville's History Department.
