Eligibility
The program is offered free of charge and is open to all Fairfax County high school students (public, private or home schooled) entering 10th, 11th or 12th grades during the 2023-2024 school year. Class size is limited to 15 students. While many students will provide their own transportation, in order to meet the needs of our large community, transportation will also be offered from the Gerry Hyland Government Center at 8350 Richmond Hwy and the Gum Springs Community Center at 8100 Fordson Rd. Pickup/drop-off times will be determined at a later date, once the numbers of students requesting transportation has been established.
