The LAB (Literacy Achievement Bonanza)

The Literacy Achievement Bonanza, or LAB, is a week-long day camp full of literacy-based activities explicitly designed to foster a positive relationship with reading while improving literacy skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking) in age-, skill-, and developmentally-appropriate methods aligned with the College and Career Readiness Standards. Now working in partnership with Operation Shoestring, we have added a year-round after-school literacy support component.
