All Anson County Schools will be on a 2-hour delay for students and staff on Tuesday, November 3, 2015 due to the high number of flooded roads in Anson County. This delay will allow bus drivers, students, parents, and staff daylight so they should have clear visibility while on the road.
Local High Schools to Participate in College Application Week Anson High School, Anson Early College, Anson New Tech and Anson Academy will participate in the statewide College Application Week cosponsored by College Foundation of North Carolina (CFNC) and the Carolinas Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (CACRAO) during the week of November 2 – 6, 2015. As a part of the CFNC-CACRAO college access initiative, high schools will work with seniors during this week to complete and submit online at least one college application each using the career and college information and planning site, CFNC.org. The goal of the program is to get more students applying to North Carolina colleges early in their senior year. During this event, students may apply to North Carolina community colleges, independent colleges and state universities, many of which will waive their application fees. Students are encouraged to begin looking at applications in CFNC.org for schools they are interested in applying to as there may be essay questions they need time to work on. Students may begin working on applications but should not submit them without assistance from a counselor until the week of November 2 – 6. For more information about events at your school, please contact your school counselor.
CFNC Financial Aid Workshop for High School Seniors and Parents The College Foundation of North Carolina will hold a financial aid workshop on Tuesday, November 17th at 6:30pm in the media center at Anson High School. A CFNC representative will present information about applying for financial aid using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Colleges and universities use this information to determine financial aid packages for students. Parents will learn more about student and parent loans, work study and how to interpret financial aid award letters received from schools once their student is accepted. Seniors and their parents from Anson High School, Anson Early College, Anson Academy and Anson New Tech are strongly encouraged to attend.
