    Bossov Ballet Theatre is part of Maine Central Institute, a private high school serving grades 9-12 and post graduate.  Summer attendees will reside in one of the four dorms on campus, supervised by residential staff. 

    Summer weekends are mainly dedicated to optional recreational activities that explore the beautiful state of Maine or allow students to simply relax on campus. In past summers, students participated in fencing, astronomy parties, carriage rides through Acadia National Park, canoeing, outdoor adventure, nature exploration, swimming, stand-up paddle boarding, plein air fine art lessons, and worked on team-building skills on a low ropes course in Freeport.
