Your child will attend camp with other students who learn in similar ways. They will find a community of supportive teachers and friends. These bright children will learn, have fun and build self-confidence.

Camp Summit is for bright children entering grades 1-8 who struggle with reading, writing and math. Some have been formally diagnosed with a specific learning difference such as dyslexia. Students are grouped into small classes based on skill level to address their learning profile. Trained teachers use research-based methods and multisensory strategies to reinforce learning. Campers avoid learning loss while having fun and making new friends.
