Federal agencies and labs nearby only take kids >=16 yo, as far as I know. UMD and local university labs can take voluntary interns at a younger age, but you usually need some connections to get to know the chances. Taking care of young interns has a lot of responsibilities associated that intimidates mentors. I only take HS interns that I personally know (because I often voluntary local competitions so can get more chance to connect to talented and self-motivated students).
