Many seniors in high school get stressed about getting accepted to college. Thanks to Jurupa Valley High School’s Career Center Clerk Ms. Deborah Barela, the stress has reduced. On Thursday, Jan. 12 at 5:30 p.m., Barela held a workshop in the library for seniors and interested juniors with finding information on how to get qualified for the Cal Grant and FAFSA.
Parents were also invited to the event for information on financial aid and identity theft. That night, the students also had the opportunity to apply for a $1,000 scholarship just for completing a survey.
Not to worry though, students! There will be another chance to get all of the same information for those who missed the first workshop. The next workshop will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 15 at 5:30 p.m. in the library. Barela also said that there would be a Spanish interpreter available as well.
