About

At Walt Whitman School, we inspire learning through a STEAM focus. We motivate students to build the knowledge, skills, and intelligence to do well in high school and beyond. We believe that parental involvement is critical to student development. The school offers a number of activities to connect parents to the school community, including a PTO and school governance council. The school is proud to offer extended day services for families that are in need of before- and after-school care, tutoring, and homework help.

Families can enroll in this school using the online application at mpsmke.com/EnrollMPS.
