The FAFSA is a financial aid portal for all students planning to go to college or trade
school. Completion of the application is an Illinois requirement to graduate high school.
Carlyle High School guidance counselor Tammy Branon plans to hold a FAFSA

Kaskaskia College representatives will also be present during the completion night to
help answer any questions.
Those who plan to attend should RSVP before Oct. 29 by contacting the high school
office or by emailing Branon.
