Boise State University faculty and staff who enroll their children in the Literacy Center’s Summer Literacy Academy program by April 15 can receive an additional $55 discount. This is in addition to the regular $25 discount for early registration, so faculty and staff can receive a total discount of $80.

To take advantage of this special offer, contact Jessica Nelson at (208) 318-6424 or jessicanelson4@boisestate.edu and provide her with your employee ID number.

Qualified teachers help children beat the summer slide and further develop their literacy skills. Participating in interactive, playful and creative activities, children become more confident and engaged readers, writers and speakers.

Financial aid is available, if annual income is below $30,000.
