Attention Senior Parents!
The 2021-22 FAFSA opened on October 1, 2020. Successful FAFSA completion is required for state of TN funded programs such as the TN Promise Scholarship and the TN HOPE Lottery Scholarship.
Monday, October 19 is FAFSA Frenzy Day at MHS. We will host financial aid representatives to help seniors and their parents with FAFSA completion during school hours AND from 5:30-7:30 pm (admissions reps from Pellissippi State and Roane State available to families during these evening hours). To minimize contact, we will be making individual appointments either in person at MHS OR via Zoom for FAFSA help. Each appointment will be 30 minutes in duration so please ensure you have your question list ready to go. For an appointment, contact Mary Beth Martin via phone 977-7970 extension 45206 or via email at mary.martin@maryville-schools.org. A Spanish interpreter will be available from 5:30-7:30 pm to serve our Spanish speaking families.
