What
Two sequential workshops to learn about and apply for Pell Grants and Scholarships for college/university studies and Tech or Trade Schools.

These sessions will specifically address concerns and needs of low income and minority students and their families.

Where
The Cana Ballroom, St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church

Why
To assist students and parents in making college/university studies and Tech or Trade Schools available for professional and career development. The second session will build off the first and focus specifically on the application forms and process for Pell Grants and Scholarships. Parents will need to bring their Form 1099 or W-2 as required for qualification and the 10-page federal aid form applications (FASFA). Business leaders and BISD School Counselors will be available to answer questions and walk parents and students through the application process.
