FAFSA

The FASFA application opened October 1st for the 2022–23 school year. If your 12th-grade student will be attending a college in the Fall of 2022, it is highly recommended to complete the FASFA Application as soon as possible. This application will cover financial aid such as Grants, Scholarships offered by the institution, and student loans for dates starting July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2023. Please visit the website to complete it online: https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa

Mrs. Mae and Mrs. Danica visited both CR 12 classes today to review the FAFSA and explain how to get everything started with the students today.

If you have questions regarding the FAFSA, please reach out to our College and Career Tech, Danica Matthews at danicam@fsusd.org.

Service Academy Information Webinar 10/14

Congressman John Garamendi’s staff is hosting a virtual U.S. Service Academy Info Night for students interested in the Air Force, West Point, Naval, Merchant Marine, or Coast Guard academies.

Short-term Independent Study

If you know you are going to be out of school for 3 or more days there is a short-term independent study option.  We can provide you school work to do while you are out and your absences will be excused.  We just need a 5-day notice so we can get the paperwork prepared and work collected from the teachers.

*Short-term Independent Study is for high school classes.  If you need to miss a college class you need to make arrangements with your college professor.

ECHS Parent Group

 

Our next ECHS Parent Group meeting is on October 19th from 5:30-6:30 pm in the SCC cafeteria.  These meetings are open to all ECHS parents.  Please come to hear about things taking place inside and out of the classrooms at ECHS, hear directly from students, ask Principal Pizzo questions, and provide feedback.  We will be discussing Senior Awards, the dress code, and much more at the next meeting.

Karaoke Night

Students, plan to stay after school for ECHS Karaoke next Friday, October 15th.  We will be in the cafeteria from 3:00-5:00pm.

Student of the Week

Congratulations to Katelyn Sousa, Nathalia Hernandez, Lili Stukas, and the entire RHS Girls Waterpolo team.  They have been having a great season and on Tuesday they brought in the first-ever water polo tournament trophy to the RHS office.
