For the 12th year, Baldwinsville students entering the second and third grades in the fall had the opportunity to attend the district’s Literacy for Young Learners Reading and Writing Camp in July. The camp, made possible because of a donation from M&T Bank, was held in two daily sessions for a week at each of the district’s elementary schools. The annual program provides students with reinforcement and enrichment in reading and writing.
