Peer Tutoring is available in the Media Center! Some National Honor Society students are volunteering their time to help others with homework, study for tests, and proofread papers. Peer tutor availability was shared to all teachers and students. If you are in need of some help with your classes, contact Mrs. Kugel and she will find a tutor that can help you.

FAFSA Information:
During the soft launch of the 2024-2025 FAFSA, the online application has worked for some families and has not worked for others. Mrs. Kugel will still be available this Wednesday evening (1/17/24) from 6pm-8pm to offer help completing this form.
Please be aware that it is not guaranteed that the form will be working as the shutdowns are not always posted.

https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch

Congratulations, Joslyn!
FAFSA Update:
If you are planning to come to either of the Wednesday night FAFSA help nights (January 17th and 24th from 6pm-8pm), I recommend that both student and parent create their FSA IDs. This will allow time for your information to be verified prior to completing the FAFSA application.
Parents may already have created one for other children attending college or if they have recently attended college themselves.
To create the FSA ID, go to: https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch
