Financial aid night tonight at SHS The annual financial aid meeting will be held tonight at 6:30 in the Sidney High School cafeteria. Heather Barhorst from the University of Dayton Financial Aid Office will do the presentation. According to Deb Fahnestock, counselor, this program is designed to help parents gain an understanding of how the college financing process works, including

options available to develop a college funding strategy, how to plan for and manage all college costs, and different types of financial aid available. The main focus will be on filling out the FAFSA form. Fahnestock encourages all senior parents who have children entering college for the 2013 academic school year to attend. In addition, Priscilla Wilt will be in-

forming senior students and parents about the local Barnes Trust Loans that are available to Shelby County residents. Fahnestock will talk about the use of the Sidney High School web page to obtain local scholarship updates as well as other useful websites where one can search for financial aid. Lots of information will be available for pickup.
