Vulcan families! Do you have a senior? Then it's probably time to start thinking about the Free Application for Federal Student Aid- the FAFSA. Not only is this the first step for kiddos planning on college or certificate programs, it is also a requirement as part of EVERY seniors senior project.
The FAFSA application opened this week, so it is the perfect time to get things rolling. We'll have a few opportunities in the coming weeks to get help with the FAFSA, but we know with personal information, some families would rather handle things themselves. Below you can find a great "how to" video from the folks at NerdWallet.

When you're ready to get started follow the link below to create your FAFSA IDs and start the process. Although loans are almost always available, many grants and funds are first come first serve. This is one of those times when it could literally pay to start early.

On Friday 9/30 we had a successful Blood Drive sponsored by the National Honor Society. The National Honor Society volunteered along with other students to help register, monitor and walk donors to and from the donation area. We had a total of 32 appointments - 29 donors showed up to donate. We had students, staff and community members donate for a total of 23 units collected. The American Red Cross team was very pleased with the outcome and stated it was a very good blood drive for our small community.
