Summer Reading, Writing and Speed Reading Programs

Miami University, Corporate and Community Institute, is offering reading programs this summer in Hamilton, Middletown and West Chester.  The programs meet once a week, and the cost varies by the program and grade.  If your child is entering grades 6 - 9, there are programs that will work on developing reading comprehension skills.  The programs will also work on techniques to improve writing skills and build their confidence as writers.  For more information on the classes, you can call 1-800-470-3728.  It is suggested that you inquire early as class sizes are limited.
