[quote=Anonymous]I have a 15 year old. Combination of summer school, followed by marching band for him.  I know in our FCPS neck of the woods, there are plenty of opportunities. Some I have seen in the past couple of weeks:

Take a class online or in person.  Redo a class the kid struggled in or take an extra credit to free up time during the school year. In VA, the economics and personal finance (EPF)  credit is a great one to knock out during the summer. But, In FCPS, She would have a lot of options.  Certainly MCPS is the same.

15 year olds can lifeguard. Our neighborhood pool just sent out a notice that they need lifeguards and want to hire from within the neighborhood. 15 years and up, and the management company will train.

There are several inexpensive band opand strings Camps held in local schools, if she plays and instrument.

TJ Stembassadorsis still looking for kids from any HS to vounteer at Tech camps.

The Air and Space Museum (onthe mall or Dulles) accepts high kids on a rolling basis to volunteer as "explainers"

Etc.

Call whatever HS you are zoned for and ask.  They should definately have a list but of inexpensive, school based classes and enrichment programs, and volunteer programs that want HS kids. Then see what your niece is interested in. I would leave a 15 year old alone for a week or two.  Being left alone for the whole summer is a lot, unless you have easy access to public transportation.
