Welcome!

As we get further into the school year, and having less and less time in my actual office, I decided to use this platform to make announcement, interact with students and parents, and share important information with everyone. There is no promises that I will update this page on a daily basis, but I will definitely try to maintain this website to the best I can.

Please do take advantage of this virtual office. I look forward to hearing from you :)

If you missed our Financial Aid Presentation

If you missed the financial aid presentation given by Kurt, you can catch another one given by the Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education here: 
Email correspondence from Barb Mongar, ACPE:

The Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education (ACPE) is hosting a College Goal Alaska (CGA) webinar on Thursday, March 5th , at 5:30pm.

 

College Goal Alaska is all about the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, FAFSA, which is THE most important step to getting financial aid. Students and parents and other interested parties that would like help filling out the FAFSA are welcome.

 

Remember:  The FAFSA is needed for many types of aid, from grants to loans to work-study, from federal to state and some private sources. It's even the application for the Alaska Performance Scholarship. We encourage you to attend a CGA event and to fill out a FAFSA regardless of your parents' income. 

 

For more information about CGA events or to register for a webinar, you should go to www.CollegeGoalAK.org
