All students that completed a college application in September, should be aware of their admissions decision. Were they accepted, denied, wait listed? If a student completed a college application prior to October 15th, they should know their admissions decision. If they have not heard, the college might be waiting for information - please have your child check their college portal.

Remember to keep you acceptance letter. You will need it for your Tekamah Herman Foundation Scholarship applications.

Monday November 2nd, students interested in Dual Enrollment for Spring Semester registered. If you senior student missed this deadline, we can still try and register for some classes, but classes might be full so we will need to move quickly on this.

Just a reminder, all students in the class of 2027 must complete the FAFSA or turn in a Opt-Out form. We have had over 20 students complete the FAFSA this year. It is so much easier than the past. My suggestion is to have your student start with their FAFSA portion first. Then it asks to send a link to a contributor (parent) and then you click on the link to complete your parent part.

Ms. Nuss is a certified FAFSA Coach and is happy to help you out with your FAFSA. Just call or email her.

Do you want to have help with your FAFSA? I strongly encourage families to make an appointment with EducationQuest!!

They are located in Rock Brook Village in Omaha - right off of I680 and Center street. They will complete the FAFSA with you at your appointment. Plus it is FREE!!!!
