Skills for Success

Hope Haven Children’s Clinic and Family Center is looking forward to another great year of summer camps for local students!  

From June 16^th – August 6^th, we will be hosting our annual Skills for Success academic day camp for rising 6^th through 9^th grade students.  

Camp is held Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and offers small group instruction in Math, Reading, Language, Science, Study Skills, and Computer Science.  

The rate is $150.00 per week. 

Should you have any students who you feel would benefit from this program, please do not hesitate to contact me. I would be happy to send additional details.

This is a great program.  I have worked at Hope Haven during the summers for about eight years, and I can attest to the fact that the students who attend this program learn much needed skills and are more prepared for school in the fall.  

Please contact any families that you think may be interested in this program.
