[quote=Anonymous]What does she enjoy doing? The summer after 9th grade can be a bit tricky just due to age and experience. My daughter did a local CS camp for a week and then spent the rest of the time working on coding projects and also volunteered a nature camp for several weeks. We kind of left it up to her, which meant a lot of last-minute planning but it was a good lesson and had relatively little impact for later high school summers and college admissions. If you don't want to pay for pre-college programs (which is valid), volunteering might be the best option. My daughter also babysat and cat-sat. [/quote]
