Aftermath for junior summer before sophomore summer

Hello, I have had plans for a while to do BO at a BB for my sophomore summer. I recently signed an offer for IBD at another BB for my junior summer. Given the accelerated nature of recruiting and how I did not have much choice at the moment, how do I approach this issue during my sophomore summer without burning bridges? I would be interested in IBD at this BB for full time, so should I make it clear I already signed during performance reviews or keep quiet for a return offer? Advice from anyone who has been in a similar situation especially is appreciated, as well as advice on how to handle communication. Thanks!
