Summer Programs

BCHS receives an amazing amount of summer program information from colleges and other organizations. These programs may revolve around a career or field of study and are also a good way to explore a college you might be interested in. These often have a cost, but some can be found that are not so expensive.

If you have a specific interest, contact the BCHS school counselors to see what information they have. Or, look on the website of the college you are interested in to find what they are offering.

Registration for these programs often opens in early spring, with late spring deadlines, so plan ahead.

Open to high school students the summer after their sophomore year who are in Level III or higher in French, German or Spanish, students who participate in IUHPFL gain a fully immersive experience into a culture and language for 4 weeks in June/July. All students are placed with a host family and get the opportunity to connect, spend time, and enjoy meals with people from the country. Applications open on Sept. 15 and close Nov. 15.
