Wyoming Seminary, founded in 1844 and now led by President Kip P. Nygren, is a private college preparatory school located in the Wyoming Valley of Northeastern Pennsylvania, in Kingston (where the Upper School is located) and Forty Fort (where the Lower School is located.) It is near the Susquehanna River and the city of Wilkes-Barre. "Sem," as it is often called locally, is divided into a lower school of pre-kindergarten through eighth grade and an upper school campus of roughly 450 high schoolers. Both divisions are coeducational. Students in grades nine through postgraduate have the option to board. Slightly less than one half of the Upper School student body lives on campus.

Famous quotes containing the word wyoming:
“The admission of the States of Wyoming and Idaho to the Union are events full of interest and congratulation, not only to the people of those States now happily endowed with a full participation in our privileges and responsibilities, but to all our people. Another belt of States stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
