FAFSA Night had a great turnout! The purpose of FAFSA Night was to prepare you and your student on how to fill out the FAFSA and why you are filling it out. Remember the FAFSA is a graduation requirement for seniors. There is an opt out form for any graduating senior who does not need to fill out the FAFSA; for example, going into military or going into the workforce.
