Whitman After School Program

 

The After-School Program is beginning virtually this year, with the possibility of an in-person program when students can safely return to the building. For the virtual portion of the program, we may be offering some programming in which Whitman students would participate in activities with students and staff from other FCPS middle schools.

 

In order to participate (virtually or in-person), all students are required to be registered for the after-school program. Parents and students, please complete the short registration form below. If you have more than one child attending Whitman this year, please complete a separate form for each student. Click the link below to complete the registration form.

Neighborhood and Community Services

Neighborhood and Community Services (NCS) promotes the well-being of individuals, families and communities by providing a variety of recreation, educational and developmental programs and services; by facilitating community engagement to identify areas of need and enhance countywide capacity for serving those needs; and by connecting residents with a broad spectrum of county- and community-based resources and services to help them be safe, be healthy and realize their potential.
