Can someone explain this to me?
DC kids age 14 and up can participate in the Marion Barry Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP). You fill out the paperwork and they place you at a job site where you get paid minimum wage for the summer (pools, summer camps, libraries, etc).
Banneker "requires" incoming freshmen to attend the Banneker Summer Institute (BSI) during that same window. You can request BSI as your worksite with SYEP and essentially get paid to attend BSI.
