Good Afternoon Vulcan Senior Parents!
The Mitten just gave us all one more reason for seniors to complete the FAFSA and stay here in Michigan. Effective today the State of Michigan is sponsoring up to an an additional $5,500 of renewable scholarship money for Michigan graduates. This is good at Community Colleges, State and public Universities and even accredited private schools.
You can grab all the details on the Michigan Achievement Scholarship here:

Most of our Vulcan Seniors would likely be eligible once they complete the FAFSA. If you haven't started the FAFSA yet you can start here:

Our middle school students are so talented! This is just a small sample of the MS artwork Mrs. Piazza was grading this morning! MS students drew Tim Burton inspired self-portraits (The Nightmare Before Christmas) and they did such a great job!! Talent abounds in the middle school! The beautiful scarecrow was done by Clara Hammon - she spent a lot of time mixing her watercolor to try to capture the color of denim!

Still looking for resources to help your Senior Vulcan get ready for what comes next after graduation? Delta College and MiStudentAid will both be hosting a series of virtual and in- person financial aid workshops. Delta even has an on-campus workshop on Monday Oct 24th. That might just be a perfect opportunity to take care of the FAFSA, but also see campus and get to ask questions. Even if Delta isn't on your list, the FAFSA help alone is worth the drive. Especially with the FAFSA being a senior requirement, these workshops are a great way to get something from the senior project marked "DONE!"
As always feel free to email Mr. Hewitt if there are special situations you need help sorting out, or if you have other questions. shewitt@vassar.k12.mi.us.
Good Afternoon Vulcan Families! We will have a double bus run on the Fish Bus this afternoon only. Students riding the Fish and Horse buses will be dropped off later than normal this afternoon.
