On Monday, July 24, North Carolina Superintendent Mark Johnson will visit Camp Pathfinder at Triad Academy in Winston-Salem. Johnson is conducting a listening tour to learn more about innovative instructional programs and practices being utilized in the state’s public schools or that could benefit the state’s public schools.

“Camp Pathfinder focuses on students with dyslexia and related language-based learning challenges,” said Johnson. “The program provides public school teachers Orton Gillingham training to meet the learning needs of these students. I look forward to seeing these practices in action and discussing the training with public school teachers who take it back to their schools.”

Triad Academy at Summit School is located in Winston-Salem and serves students in grades preK-9. Camp Pathfinder is an educational and recreational summer program for students in rising 2nd – fifth grades who have difficulty with reading and writing.
