Hey there! Houston has a variety of summer camps for high school students that cater to different interests. Here are a few options to consider:

1. Houston Museum of Natural Science: The museum offers several week-long summer day camps for high school students, focusing on areas like forensic science, astronomy, and robotics. These camps provide hands-on learning experiences and expose students to unique topics not typically covered in regular school curricula.

2. Glassell School of Art: Offered by the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Glassell School of Art has summer programs for teens interested in visual arts. They cover different areas like drawing, painting, printmaking, and digital media. The courses aim to help high school students develop their artistic skills under the guidance of professional artists.

3. Houston Zoo: The Houston Zoo runs the Zoo Crew program over the summer for students aged 13-17 who are passionate about animals and conservation. Participants get to learn about wildlife conservation efforts, gain hands-on experience working with animals, and develop leadership skills.

4. Rice University Athletics: Rice University hosts sports camps during the summer for high school students interested in athletic development. The offers include basketball, soccer, volleyball, and more. These camps are led by Rice coaches and student-athletes and provide a fun environment for training and development.

5. Houston Symphony: The Houston Symphony offers a week-long summer music camp for high school musicians interested in honing their skills and learning from professional musicians. Participants receive ensemble coaching, masterclasses, and perform in a final concert at the end of the camp.

Make sure you research each program to find the one that suits your interests the best. Additionally, keep an eye on the registration deadlines and, if needed, financial aid opportunities available for these programs. Have a fantastic summer!
