🗓️💸 SAISD Class of 2026, mark your calendars! ️Submit your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) before Jan. 15, 2026, for priority consideration.
FAFSA will help determine your eligibility for federal and state financial aid – like grants (free money), scholarships and affordable loans. (Private and two-year institutions may have different deadlines.)
To get started, you’ll need student and parent/guardian StudentAid.Gov accounts (FSA ID). (Plus, have your personal information and income/asset information – like 2024 Federal Income Taxes – on hand.)
Your College Bound Advisor or counselor can walk you (and your family) through the process. Stop by your school’s college hub or start your application at https://studentaid.gov/
🗓️💸 ¡Estudiantes de la Clase de 2026 de SAISD, marquen sus calendarios! ️Envíen su Solicitud Gratuita de Ayuda Federal para Estudiantes (FAFSA) antes del 15 de enero de 2026 para consideración prioritaria.
FAFSA ayuda a determinar su elegibilidad para la ayuda financiera federal y estatal, como subvenciones (dinero gratis), becas y préstamos asequibles. (Las instituciones privadas y las de dos años pueden tener plazos diferentes.)
Para empezar, se necesitan cuentas de StudentAid.Gov (FSA ID) para el estudiante y los padres o tutores. (Deberá tener a la mano su información personal y la información de ingresos/activos, como los impuestos federales de 2024).
Su asesor universitario o consejero puede guiarlo a usted (y a su familia) a lo largo del proceso. Visite el centro universitario de su escuela o comience su solicitud en https://studentaid.gov/

We would like to share two important announcements for next week.
First, next week's final exam exam schedule for SAC. A couple of things to note, in person final exams will be limited to 75 minutes (students with accommodations should reach out to their professors). Please see attached testing schedule.
Second, we are having our Freshman SAC Orientation next Wednesday at SAC from 6:00 to 7:30 pm. It will be held Nursing & Allied Health Careers (NAHC) 218. Due to space, we are asking that only one parent accompany their scholar. This event will welcome our 9th graders to SAC and will cover resources and services available to scholars.
Thank you,
