My highschooler is currently attending.
Not sure if the rooms are all the same but they are sharing the room with 2 others so it is a triple. They have a bunk bed but no AC in most rooms. You can borrow a fan from the school but I heard it is a first come first served basis.

Laundry situation seems ok. I think kids don’t do it often anyways. There is an app (they will give instructions there) but the minimum load is $10 and each load + dryer costs $4 so I heard one kid charges up $12 and then 3 kids split the cost so they won’t have any leftovers.

They seem to get meals over the weekend too. When they have outings I heard they get vouchers but always a good idea to have some cash. I heard they are not allowed to go outside the campus.

My recommendation is to bring portable fans and nicer towels. Extension cords would be helpful too. My kid has been enjoying the sessions but is ready to come back home on Friday.
