Summer Literacy Support

Summer Literacy Support

Community Literacy Center: Summer Literacy Support - Summer 2026

Work on your goals for reading and writing with a CLC tutor!

Students meet individually with a tutor for 45-minute sessions. During their first meetings, students complete assessments and establish a literacy goal. Tutors use students’ assessments, interests, and goals to guide research-based, developmentally appropriate literacy instruction. Activities might include: word chains, word ladders, phonics instruction, reader’s theater, riddles, jokes, assisted reading, writing activities, and more.

Who: Students in grades K-12

Where: New Location for Summer 2026! Murkland Hall, 15 Library Way, Durham, NH., Durham, NH or online 

When: Day(s) and time(s) will be scheduled upon receipt of registration. Day and early evening meetings are available. Summer Literacy Support meets the following weeks:

  • June 22-26
  • June 29-July 2
  • July 6-10
  • July 13-17
  • July 20-24
  • July 27-31

Literacy Support is scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Register early for the greatest time/day selection. After registration is complete, the CLC will contact the parent/guardian to learn about the child as a reader and writer and set up the tutoring schedule.

Tutoring sessions are purchased via punch cards. Purchase the number of sessions needed for the whole summer. For example, to have the student meet 2x per week for 6 weeks, purchase 12 punches.

Click the '+' on the registration block(s) to enroll. Review the Online Registration Instructions before enrolling for the best outcome. This includes instructions for creating a Family or Student/Individual account.

Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the Student or Family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@unh.edu if you require assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.

If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a Student Account, the account profile should be in the name of the participating student, but the email should be that of a parent/guardian. Review the Online Registration Instructions before creating a new account.

Camp Pageturner is held at Murkland Hall, 15 Library Way, Durham, NH. 

Additional information, including check in location and times are sent to participants by the program staff prior to the session start date.
