Enrollment for CATS Wizardry and Literacy Camp being accepted

Enrollment is open for the CATS Wizardry and Literacy Camp offered in various cities this summer.

Campers will take a journey though reading, writing and acting as they study the novel "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" by J.K. Rowling.

Camp students will attend classes led by "professors." Activities include reading parts of the book, personal journaling, creating skits from book events, meeting guest authors, making wands and wizard hats and cooking "magical" refreshments. The emphasis will be on the importance of reading and writing and making it fun.
