AISD helps seniors plan for the future
Tuesday, April 20, 2021 by Tai Moses
As high school seniors prepare for graduation, many are already thinking about the next step, which could include going to college, launching a career or entering the military. Austin ISD is helping seniors plan for the future by holding a week of virtual events and informational sessions devoted to colleges and careers. Seniors can get help with college or trade school applications, info about applying for federal student aid, and career advice. Students also have the opportunities to enter scholarship drawings, $1,000 from AISD and $2,500 from the Austin Chamber of Commerce. AISD urges all Class of 2021 seniors and their families to register for at least one of the virtual help sessions. Zoom sessions will run from 4:30-6 p.m., April 26-29.
