SUMMER OPPORTUNITIES
There are many summer opportunities to explore your interests and expand your knowledge. There are also some other summer programs for our students who can enrich their lives by helping others. Some programs are in-state and others are out-of-state/country. We have listed a few and will add to the list as we receive them. Check with your counselor about any of these programs. Note that some have application deadlines.
