age, race, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, religion, marital or parental status, sexual orientation, or
physical, mental, emotional, or learning disability or handicap as required by s. 118.13 Wis. Statues. This policy
also prohibits discrimination as defined by the Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (race, color and national
origin), Section 504 of the rehabilitation Act of 1973 (handicap), and the American with Disabilities Act of 1990
(disability)
The School District shall provide appropriate educational services of programs for students who have been

INTRODUCTION
This Financial Aid Guide is provided to students and parents with information regarding financial aid
procedures and scholarship opportunities.
This guide is as up-to-date as possible, however, changes often occur after the material is printed. This is
particularly true for application deadlines. In order to better assist students, current scholarship information is
shared in the morning announcements, posted on school bulletin boards and listed on an information sheet in the
Pupil Services Office. Students are encouraged to check for a revised listing on a regular basis. Many scholarship
applications can be obtained in the Pupil Services Office.
Parents and students are reminded that most financial assistance is based on the premise that the cost of a
college or technical education is the responsibility of the student and his/her parents. Financial aid is a means of
assisting the parent(s) and student who could not otherwise afford such an education. The FAFSA (Free
Application for Federal Student Aid) will be available in December and a FINANCIAL AID MEETING
REGARDING THIS FORM WILL BE HELD IN JANUARY. It is extremely important that your parent(s)
attend this meeting!
Generally speaking, students seeking financial assistance must meet two criteria. They must have financial
need and have enough academic potential to be reasonably successful in the school of their choice. There are
however, some scholarships for which financial need is not a criteria.
Many colleges, universities, and technical colleges offer scholarships that are not always widely publicized.
Interested students should write to the Director of Financial Aid at the school of their choice for information
regarding scholarships and other forms of financial assistance.
Students are encouraged to apply for any and all scholarships they may qualify for.
See Mrs. Malcore or Mrs. Alberts if you have any questions.

TIPS FOR COMPLETING SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATIONS
1. Read all directions carefully before beginning to complete the applications.
Follow the instructions exactly.
2. TYPE ALL APPLICATIONS!
3. If you are asked to submit a statement in your own handwriting, be certain that it is legible.
4. Neatness is important. Do not submit an application that has smudges, cross-outs or answers
squeezed in corners. They will not be sent to the school or agency, but will be returned to the student for
correction.
5. Provide complete answers for each question. For example, if you are asked to list extra-curricular
activities and years in which you participated, provide all of that information.
6. Be certain that you do not have spelling or grammatical errors on your application. Being able to use
the English language correctly is an indicator of college potential.
7. Be as specific as possible in answering questions.
8. Give some thought to answers to essay type questions. If you are asked “why you want a college
education” or “why do you need a scholarship” be concise, provide thoughtful reasons, and give
creative rather than “stock: answers.
9. Proofread your application carefully! Have someone else review it also.
10. Be certain to meet application deadlines. No late applications will be accepted.
11. Apply for a variety of scholarships, for which you are eligible. Apply for every scholarship you feel
you may be eligible for.
12. Start planning very early in your senior year so that you have plenty of time to meet appropriate
deadlines.
13. Seek out adults who can write a positive recommendation for you and give them plenty of time to
complete their recommendation letter.
14. What you write and how well you write it are as important as what you have accomplished!
15. Any questions – see Mrs. Malcore immediately.
GOOD LUCK!
