CSD and the National Leadership and Literacy Camp (NLLC) are now accepting deaf and hard of hearing students for their annual summer camps. The NLLC, which brings together gifted deaf and hard of hearing students to sharpen their literacy and journalism skills along with their leadership abilities, offers two separate programs. The NLLC program for 9th - 12th graders will be held from June 27th - July 10th, and the NLLC program for 5th - 8th graders will be from July 11th - 24th, both located at CSD's Camp Lakodia, in Madison, South Dakota.
The camp's mission is to prepare, through a challenging learning environment, each child for a meaningful and productive life in a competitive and every-changing world. Daily program activities are carefully planned so as to develop a social-educational climate specific to the development of basic personal autonomy, appropriate future aspirations and positive participation in society. Located on the shores of Lake Herman, there is also plenty of outdoor and water activities available to the youth while they experience this unique and innovative camp.
To find out more information or to fill out an application for the NLLC, visit their website at www.nllcamp.com. For those in financial need, CSD and the NLLC also have a limited number of scholarships available. These scholarships are based on both scholastic achievement and family's income level. The scholarship form can also be found at the NLLC Website. |
