Summer Reading Camp Registration 2025

Pierce Elementary School has a summer learning opportunity for reading camp available for elementary school students who attend our Title I district schools.

Schedule: The program will begin the week of July 8th and will end on July 31st, each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9-12:00pm.

Locations: The program will take place at Antrim Elementary School and Peterborough Elementary School this year and is open to all rising 1st - 5th Grade students. SPACE IS LIMITED!

Please fill out a separate registration form (either on paper or online) for each child/student you are enrolling. REGISTRATION CLOSES MAY 23, 2025 OR SOONER depending on limited spaces available.

A few important things to note about the Reading Camp Summer Program:

• The Summer Program is free of charge and registration is open to all students attending PES, AES and Pierce Schools.
  
• The District will work with STA to provide bus transportation to and from summer programming; however, given staff shortages, it is not guaranteed at this time. As soon as we know more we will reach out.
  
• The District is not providing a bagged lunch this year, but if there is a need, a snack will be provided. We appreciate your cooperation in sending your child with a snack and water/drink every day.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the school principal, Ms. Hansen-Proulx, at ahansen@conval.edu or:
