Bulldog Events of the Week! #BulldogPRIDE

Dear Senior Students and Parents,
This is a reminder that IHS will host a FAFSA/College Planning Event to assist families with completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). This will be a drop-in event, so you are welcome to come at any time during the scheduled hours. When parents arrive, students will be called down from class to join you in the library.
We will have FAFSA experts from Pittsburg State University and Independence Community College available to help guide families through the FAFSA process and answer questions. Our goal is that when you leave, you will have this completed. (Your student does not need to be attending Pitt State or ICC to attend this event. Everyone is welcome regardless of where you plan to go to school next year.)
To help this day run smoothly, both parents and students must create an FSA ID prior to the event. Directions for creating an FSA ID have been sent via email.
Date: Wednesday, January 14th
Time: 12-3
Location: IHS Library
For those who are unable to join us for the day event, ICC will return later that evening from 6-7. They will be set up in the cafeteria to offer assistance to anyone who needs it.
Please let Ms. Jefferson know if you have any questions.
