Summer Programs for HS & MS* students
This is a list of summer programs and opportunities available for high school students in institutions in the United States and Puerto Rico. I created this list after
the many requests I got over the years from my students asking for ideas to do during their summers. That means that the topics on this list are the ones I
teach or I am familiar with, that doesn't mean the programs include many others to choose from. I am not affiliated to any of these institutions, except Saint
John’s School, school where I teach at. I spent some time on google searching for options to add to the list and also got some suggestions from fellow
teachers. If you wish to collaborate with this list make sure you send your suggestions to gtoyos@sjspr.org. Keep checking periodically as I will continue to add
programs.
