WHAT: Enrichment Opportunities include activities and programs available to students outside the high school day and during the summer months. Camps, classes and workshops are available in almost any area of interest. Opportunities are available locally, around the country, or around the world. Some are provided by non-profit organizations and some are commercial ventures. Some are FREE and some charge fees.
WHY: Enrichment Opportunities provide students a FUN way to further their education, explore an area of interest, connect with other students, build leadership skills, or find a constructive way to spend the summer.
