Information For Parents
The purpose of the Camas Public Library’s Summer Reading Program is to encourage youth to read and participate in community activities during their school break. Youth who read during the summer will practice their reading comprehension skills, and are likely to start school in the fall more prepared and ahead of their classmates.
We measure reading time and community participation rather than number of pages or books. With this method, youth of all ages and abilities can accomplish their goals with comparable effort.
