[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the summer school suggestion. I looked into that and MCPS does accept non-residents (she lives on the west coast). But, class is over at 2pm and [b]we couldn't get her til about 4[/b]. Do the schools allow kids to stay and study in the library or do you have to get them right away? [/quote] Does she need to be gotten? Can she get herself somewhere? I don't know where you live, where the school would be, or what her experience is in getting herself places.[/quote] I'm in MCPS and I have a 15 year old. Since your niece is living with you now, I would consider her a resident. You could even go through the motions of enrolling her for school (and then unenrolling her if necessary). My teen did a class at Montgomery College's youth program last year and enjoyed it. I don't know what your local public high school is, but some of the wealthier ones have their own summer academies with some enrichment classes and the opportunity to take Health or Tech for credit. The standard county summer school is going to be mainly remedial except for Health or Tech. There are nice camps through Imagination Stage and also Highwood Theatre that probably still have openings. I can't imagine my 15 year old not being busy. I know that this is an unexpected expense for you, and i'm sorry that she is in this situation. My DD has learned how to take the bus in safe areas and she also takes Uber when she needs to. [/quote]
