Summer Literacy Camp: K-5
University of Arkansas Clinic for Literacy families,
Thank you to everyone who expressed eager interest in Summer 2025 camp programming. Due to changes to the university course that supports this camp with teacher candidates, we are sad to announce that we will not be able to offer our traditional programming until Fall 2025.
Our primary goal for these camps is to provide high-quality and evidence-based programming in which campers can grow in their skills and confidence through the direct instruction and mentorship of a teacher candidate. After much reflection, we did not feel we would be able to meet these goals given the current structure. Summer programming is the highlight of our year, and we have been honored to play such a memorable role in campers’ literacy journeys. We hope to continue to have this same positive impact through new types of programming that will occur during the academic year.
Please continue to check our website for updates and feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you for sharing your campers with us; it is an honor we cherish deeply.
Thank you,
The University of Arkansas Clinic for Literacy Leadership Team
