🚨 CLASS OF 2027: Don’t FAFSA too soon! 😅

Unless you’ve been approved to participate in the 2027–28 FAFSA beta testing period, your FAFSA time hasn’t arrived yet.
And trust me, you do NOT want to spend time completing the wrong FAFSA just to turn around and do it again. 👀
Use this time to get prepared so you can hit the ground running when it’s your turn. Financial aid planning starts BEFORE the FAFSA opens!

💰 Learn more about FAFSA and get prepared here: https://ccmrwithmsthrash.com/seniors/financial-aid/fafsa/

Save this post and send it to a Class of 2027 family who needs the reminder! 🎓

🎉Creative incentives drive attendance and build community🐾

Today our school held a surprise attendance day: students who attended were treated to a water‑balloon fight with the Principal and Counselor, accompanied by a Lorax & Pig mascot, a bubble machine, and lively music. The event boosted morale, encouraged attendance, and strengthened student‑staff connections in a memorable, positive way.
