BRSD Receives Support for Reading University

Battle River School Division (BRSD) is pleased to share that on March 12, it received exciting news that it will receive support from Battle River Community Foundation (BRCF) for its Reading University program. BRSD is grateful to be receiving a generous donation of $60,000 for Reading University this summer. 

The three locations are Camrose, Tofield and virtual online sessions held morning and afternoon. Once dates have been determined, more information will be shared.

Reading University is geared toward improving reading skills for students Grade 2 and up. This fun filled, skill building four-week summer program is packed with activities for young learners. It offers an experience that demonstrates how reading and learning can expand the horizon for life’s adventures.

In addition to participating in educational field trips and special events, special guests visit the program to read and connect with students. The goal is to engage students in a fun and collaborative learning environment while they improve their reading skills.

Reading University is hosted jointly by BRSD and BRCF, and the program has served our student community for over a decade. Hundreds of students have successfully graduated from the program.
