ACCESS Summer Reading Camp
CLaRI's ACCESS Summer Reading Camp program information is now posted. Registration is now open. Families are encouraged to register early as limited spots are available.
CLaRI's ACCESS Summer Reading Camp provides literacy instruction for five weeks. Children working below grade level and entering first grade through fifth grade in fall 2026 are eligible to attend.
The program runs Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., for five weeks in July and early August (please see the schedule page for specific days). Each day, children will engage in small-group reading instruction. Also, children will have access to read and check out a wide variety of books from the CLaRI library to read during the camp and at home.
About the Program
Our camp is designed to promote children’s desire to read and their ability to read. Instruction will focus on reading development and be tailored to meet the literacy needs of the students in the program. Children attending must be reading below grade level to be eligible for this program.
Our camp aims to inspire confidence in students as they have the opportunity to engage in reading over the summer. Students will have the opportunity to stay active in their literacy development this summer, learning and practicing new literacy skills each day of the camp.
Snack
Each day, children will have 10-15 minutes to have snack. Children will be engaged in challenging reading, spelling, and writing instruction and will need a break and snack to maintain their focus and stamina during the 3-hour literacy camp. Please pack a drink and peanut/tree nut-free snack for your child. If the weather is nice, children will be able to eat outside and take a walk around Foster Hall. Children will always remain with their teacher.
