During the college application and FAFSA season, some students need extra support. Making choices about one's future can be a scary process, so some students "freeze up" while do so. When we notice students who are not completing college applications or their FAFSA, we work with them on an individual basis. The one-on-one support and ability to ask questions in a safe environment often help students move through and complete their application. Right now, we help them in our office, which is separated from the classrooms. I've noticed that it helps students when I meet them within their classes to provide additional support.
We don't have extra laptops, so I often have to find one to borrow if I want to provide one-on-one support for students. Receiving laptops through donorschoose.org will allow me to provide post-secondary responsive services in a more student friendly manner.
