Junior Conferences
Junior conferences will be starting after our Thanksgiving break on the week of December 2nd. Please watch your email for information on how you can sign up to attend with your student. These meetings will cover information that’s important for your student’s success in senior year and beyond. These meetings will be approximately 45 minutes and will be held between 7:00am-2:30pm.
Pathways to Success Night
The Badger High School Counselors along with the College and Career Readiness Coordinator will be hosting a Course Guide & Course Selection Informational Meeting in the Auditorium and a Badger Scholarship Program Informational meeting in the Recital Hall on Wednesday, December 11th at 5:30pm. Join us to gather information that will help your student plan their path or explore all of their scholarship opportunities.
FAFSA
The 2025-2026 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) will open on December 1, 2024. In the meantime, we strongly recommend you create your account and FSA ID. Your account username and password combination, called your FSA ID, gives you access to certain information online and allows you to sign your FAFSA® form and promissory notes electronically. While you can get your FSA ID as you’re completing the FAFSA form online, getting it ahead of time and using it to fill out the FAFSA form on fafsa.gov cuts down on errors and delays. Visit studentaid.gov for more information.
Holiday Stress
The holiday season is all about giving — and that includes giving yourself whatever you need to reduce stress so you can fully appreciate and find meaning during this time. Because stress affects people in different ways, this can look different for everyone. For some people, it means having time each day for meditation. For others, it means getting plenty of sleep or exercise — or both. Eating nourishing foods, keeping a gratitude journal, and maintaining a normal schedule are other ways that people take care of themselves. If you are at a loss for which self-care activities work best for you, here’s an idea of something you can try: make time to do one thing each day that makes you happy. Incorporating joy into your life and reconnecting with the things that mean the most to you is, frankly, what the holidays are all about.
