Wow! I assume this is going to be expensive. How much a week on avg?
My kids' camp is about $2K/week once you factor in travel
Ours is $11,000 for 7 weeks.

Spending 2 months in Europe. We have a base there, and will take shorter trips here and there. In between, probably pool, community service, maybe a week of camp. We’ll see, will be fun. We haven’t been able to do this in a while.

Rising 9th grader:
end of JUNE
1-2 weeks grandparents´ beach house
JULY
1 week travel tournament (futsal)
1–2 weeks: finish SSL hrs (MCPS)
1 week HS soccer prep camp
AUGUST
1 week soccer camp through club or private trainers
1 week family vacation
In between: Pool, friends, sleepovers, etc.
++ I like the idea others mentioned about taking a summer HS class and getting it out of the way (health etc.) — maybe next summer.

It completely depends on the school/district. My kid did in-person PE during the summer session to get it out of the way.

Swim / tennis at the local pool - including coaching the youngest kids and then just hanging at the pool with friends for most of the rest of the day - for the first 5-6 weeks.
Sleepaway camp for the last 3 weeks.

This
My son is doing a bunch of coding/IT certification classes, same thing he did last summer. Some of it will be new some of it will be the next level/standard of certifications he received last year.
Would love recommendations for any coding programs - particularly in person opportunities beyond TIC Which don't work for us schedule wise...

MCPS has both in person and virtual classes. Health Ed is a popular one.
Some private schools have them. Our experience was hit or miss with them.
