A Fantastic Start to the School Year! 🎉

We’ve kicked off this school year with a bang!


Our amazing team of faculty and staff have done a stellar job welcoming students and diving right into teaching and learning. From day one, it was clear that rigorous, engaging, and community-building activities were the focus across the building.


It’s been inspiring to see such enthusiasm and dedication in every classroom. Students are not just learning; they’re thriving in a supportive, dynamic environment.


Let’s keep this momentum going! Together, we’re setting the stage for an incredible year of growth, discovery, and success.


Keep up the fantastic work, everyone!

Everything you need to know about the new FAFSA® changes


The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) is the gateway to getting federal student loans, scholarships, grants, and work-study for school, but there can be so much confusion around it.

The FAFSA® used to be a super long application that took a lot of time and effort—that’s now a thing of the past. The FAFSA® for the 2024-2025 academic year is the new and improved version. Check out the link below to see all the changes!

Tips on how to avoid these common FAFSA® mistakes

Every year, families postpone filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). Some skip it entirely because they think it’s a waste of time, the application is too long, or it's only a fast track to federal student loans. However, the FAFSA® package can also include college scholarships, work-study, and grants. Not filling it out—the most costly FAFSA® mistake—can result in losing money that could have helped you pay for college. Don’t be that student, and make sure you avoid these common FAFSA® mistakes by checking out the article link below!
