Our Facilities
CLaRI offers a unique tutoring atmosphere. Each child has his or her own personalized tutoring area that is custom made to address his or her reading and writing needs. We pride ourselves in offering a kid- and parent-friendly center. We consider CLaRI a “community of learners” – a place where children learn to be good readers and writers and where clinicians learn about developmentally appropriate literacy instruction. Please take a tour and see for yourself.
Our motto is a “community of learners.”
