Speech, Language, and Literacy Summer Camps
July, 2012
This summer Heather Thompson will be running 2-week summer camps for students struggling with
speech and reading, regardless of whether they qualify for special education services in the
school district. These camps will provide opportunities for multi-sensory learning within an
intensive, individualized, small group setting. Unlike other reading programs in the area, we will
accept more than four students per group.

“When Megan was born, I was unprepared and totally overwhelmed. The early months of her life were filled with many trips to the doctor, unanswered questions and feelings of isolation.
By meeting other parents of children with disabilities, I began to realize that Megan was my mission. Megan has brought laughter, joy and endless love to my husband, myself, her three older brothers and those around her. She is the sparkle in our lives.”
