Anyone who filled out a FAFSA before March 1st will be entered in a drawing to win a laptop, AND because rootEd is feeling generous, we will have a drawing for a 2nd laptop if we are able to reach our goal of 60% FAFSA completion by April 1st. We are currently at 45%, so we need ALL college and trade school bound students to complete the FAFSA ASAP.
Let me know if I can help in any way.
