ABOUT SUMMER CAMP READING

How It Works

Summer Camp Reading is a dynamic 4-week daily experience for struggling readers in greater Cincinnati going into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades.

Daily individual tutoring, reading and writing activities, literacy games, learning centers, positive psychology, discussions on values and citizenship, books to take home and own, exercise, and service projects result in improved reading skills, vocabulary and mind-set.


Camps are free, breakfast and lunch included.​
