Early Bird Registration for Summer Literacy Camp for Children to End June 1
A U of A student works with a past participant of the literacy camp.
The cost for children to attend the University of Arkansas summer literacy camp will go up after June 1.
The University of Arkansas Clinic for Literacy presents the camp, which is $90 per child if paid before June 1 and $100 per child after June 1. Registration may be done online.
The camp takes place from 9 to 11 a.m. July 16 and 17 and July 23 through Aug. 3 in Peabody Hall.
Children will be paired one-on-one with a University of Arkansas graduate student. They will be screened in order to target the areas needing the most improvement or enrichment. Participants will experience literacy lessons and games in an engaging and laid-back environment with the opportunity to interact with other students sharing their developmental levels.
