Notes from Ms. Amundson
The Sanborn Central and Woonsocket FAFSA Night 2024 has officially been scheduled for Wednesday, January 10, 2024 at 6:00 PM at the Woonsocket school in Charley Larson's classroom. We have been alternating locations every year, and this year it is Woonsocket's turn to host the event.

The newest addition this year is the presentation will be offered via Zoom as well! Our Zoom speaker is from Mapping Your Future, and she will be relaying all the important information you need to know about completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If your child is attending college next fall (2024), I highly recommend completing the FAFSA, which is the application to potentially receive grants (free government money), subsidized loans (do not accrue interest while in school), and unsubsidized loans (interest accrues while in school), that your student can accept or deny, but will ultimately help your child pay for college.

I have been told that there are several changes happening with the FAFSA this year, so I highly recommend that you attend this presentation to learn more about the FAFSA in general, as well as the new changes. 

Before you attend the presentation, I highly suggest that you complete an FSA ID. I emailed all senior parents a document that will help you complete the steps to creating an FSA ID, which has to be done before you fill out the FAFSA. If you have created an FSA ID for yourself to help your older children complete the FAFSA in the past, you will use that same FSA ID to sign all of your children's FAFSA forms. Additionally, your senior child will create their own unique FSA ID. You both will need an FSA ID to complete the FAFSA.

Here is the link to access the FAFSA Event via Zoom, if you would like to watch online from home instead of coming in-person to Woonsocket:

Hello.  My name is Dawn Byers and I am sending you this e-mail and attachment on behalf of the Deubrook Booster Club announcing our Prom Dress Resale.  Our 2023 sales dates are February 4, 8, and 11 and will be held at McKnight Community Hall on Main Street in White, SD. We contact schools in the area including schools who have had students either consign and/or shop with us in the past to provide information and a poster about our event.  We would appreciate if you could share this information with your students and families by either posting and/or circulating this poster.  The assistance that schools provide in helping us spread the word has been helpful and is appreciated very much.  It helps to provide students with an opportunity to shop for and/or consign a prom dress.  We are looking for dresses of ALL sizes.  We have taken consignments of short dresses in the past but have decided that with the growth of the sale, we will be focusing only on prom dresses this year.

Shopping will be by appointment only with 1-hour appointments available and dressing rooms to accommodate 20 shoppers during each hour time slot.  We have done appointments for two years now and it has worked fabulously.  There will be a Signup Genius available on our Facebook page and on Instagram.  Both can be found under the Deubrook Prom Dress Resale.  We encourage you to follow us so that you get all information and updates.
