TURNING THE SUMMER SLIDE INTO THE SUMMER LEAP
LitCamp is a proven, research-based program that has shown exceptional growth in summer school students over the summer months. LitCampers enjoy a confluence of joyful, strengths-based literacy learning experiences with the practical literacy skills they need to return well-prepared for the school year.
BOOSTING ATTENDANCE AND ENGAGEMENT
Historically, students have dreaded summer school. But LitCamp changed all that. Now students count the days until they can attend. School districts across the United States have built LitCamp into their yearlong strategy. Evidence shows that students are far more likely to show up to summer school when LitCamp is in session, leading to their productive return to school in the fall.
CULTIVATING KEY LITERACY SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE
With a unique, playful, joyous approach founded on the 7 Strengths and the Science of Reading, LitCamp has pioneered exceptional experiences with literacy for even the most resistant learner.
