FAFSA Night
I'll be assisting seniors and families with the FAFSA! The FAFSA is a free application students/families complete to apply for both loans (which has to be paid back) and grants (free money that does NOT have to be repaid). Completing the FAFSA does not commit a student to loans. Students could receive up to $7,395 in Pell Grant per year by completing the FAFSA. The Pell Grant is awarded based on a family’s income, which is why there’s a Parent section of the FAFSA. Students and parents will need to know their Social Security Numbers, and may also need 2023 tax information. Email Ms. Omercevic, College & Career Counselor, if you have questions: katie.omercevic@bosieschools.org

CELEBRATIONS!
Festival of Trees Boise
Frank Church High School was invited to participate in this year's Festival of Trees Boise hosted by Saint Alphonsus. Mrs. Harper and her students decorated and donated a beautiful wreath to the event and were awarded a 1st Place Ribbon for the High School Division in Wreaths. The goal of the event is to raise funds for the Cancer Institute that will enhance oncology services, ensuring that patients have access to life-saving preventive care, early detection screenings, and cancer treatment. We thank all those that helped make this possible. Congratulations!
