Dear Parents and Guardians, Half of our seniors completed their FSA IDs on Wednesday, and the other half will finish theirs on Friday morning! The FSA ID serves as the student’s electronic signature for the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and allows them to securely access and sign their financial aid forms online. Now it’s your turn! One parent will also need to create an FSA ID to complete the parent portion of the FAFSA. This should be the parent who filed the student on their 2024 tax return. Please create your FSA ID here: 👉 https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch Steps to Create Your FSA ID: Click “Get Started.” Fill out the required personal information and answer the questions carefully. Do not use the same phone number or email address that your student used when creating their FSA ID. Each FSA ID must have unique contact information. Once complete, keep your username and password in a secure place—you’ll need it each year your student is in college. 💡 Very Important Tip: Start a note in your phone titled “FSA ID and FAFSA Info.” Record everything in that note—your username, password, security questions and answers, and any related details. Avoid taking a picture of your login info—it will get lost in your camera roll. You will need this information every year your child attends college or any postsecondary school to complete the FAFSA form. Creating your FSA ID now ensures your family is ready to complete the FAFSA smoothly when you begin the full application process. Here is the link to complete the FAFSA once you have completed the FSA ID portion: https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to help!

🎓 College visits have been in full swing! We’ve had representatives from the University of Arkansas and Arkansas State University on campus, speaking with our seniors and juniors about their futures, scholarship opportunities, and college life.
