COLLEGE COUNSELING UPDATE: “Hello Bret Harte Families, Our College Night was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who attended and participated. [The PowerPoint presentation from the event, which includes live links for your own research, [can be found https://5il.co/3ri3k.] The Financial Aid section contains several legitimate and reliable websites that may be useful tools as you explore funding options for college or other post-high school opportunities.
Whether your student is a current freshman or a graduating senior, I wanted to share some helpful information about the financial side of education after high school. While I'm not a financial aid expert, I regularly receive great resources and updates that I'm happy to pass along to you.

Please take a look at the [following] links and resources for topics related to Financial Aid After High School, they're a great starting point for understanding costs, applications, and potential funding sources. [Go to https://www.brethartebullfrogs.org/o/bhhs/page/college-career-counseling to access.]

I've also included the schedule for the remaining Zoom workshops hosted by Columbia College to help families complete the FAFSA. I strongly encourage all senior families to attend one of these sessions-completing the FAFSA is a requirement for all schools after graduation, and these workshops are an excellent opportunity to get step-by-step guidance.

Thursday, November 20th - 5:00-7:00pm
