It's the time of year for presents and fun, but what about education? This December the 2024-2025 FAFSA form opens, and you better get to it! FAFSA is a Free Application for Financial Student Aid. This helps students out with college tuition and can really help benefit them and their future. Here at East, we have a lot of people who can really help students out with information on FAFSA. Ms. Gilbert, who is a counselor here at East High School, has a wealth of information about it. She recommends, “Get FAFSA done as early as possible. It's the first step in getting any financial aid for college.” She advises not to be afraid of the cost of college. She went on to say, “College can definitely be affordable, just look at other options, there are scholarships out there, a lot of scholarships out there.” There will be a FAFSA event during 5th period on January 11th, all the way to parent- teacher conference. So, for those of us who are interested in attending this event, I would highly recommend it, especially if you plan on pursuing more education.
