    Summer Programs for High School Students

    Summer programs for high school students give you a chance to explore interests, meet new friends, and venture to new destinations. In other words, you get to make the most of your summer break. 

    Perhaps you’ll enroll in a pre-college program on a university campus to get a taste of academic life and try out potential majors. Are you a science buff? STEM programs offer hands-on learning experiences. Love the arts? Channel your creativity in a visual or performing arts program or camp.

    There’s something for thrill seekers, too. Teen outdoor adventure experiences invite you to push your limits and connect with nature through backpacking, whitewater rafting, rock climbing, horseback riding, and more. Want to polish your second (or third) language? Language immersion programs open doors to new cultures and communication skills. 

    Dream of becoming the next Steve Jobs? Leadership and entrepreneurship programs equip you with the tools to become a changemaker in your community. Feel the urge to give back? You can make a positive impact in a community service program. Of course, there’s always the classic summer camp experience where you can build friendships, learn new skills, and create lasting memories.

    The best part? With options ranging from day programs to residential experiences — and study abroad programs or programs close to home — there’s an option for every student and budget. Don’t waste summer on the couch or in your bedroom! Enroll in a summer program or camp that will give you an unforgettable summer.
