The series, running on Tuesday evenings in January, is intended for current high school students and will cover general information about the college application and financial aid process; details on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Minnesota Dream Act for undocumented students; and other ways to pay for college. All sessions will have interpretation in Spanish, Somali and Hmong. Attendees can ask questions in the chat and have them answered during the event by financial aid experts. Students who attend any of the sessions will be entered into a drawing to win a $1,000 scholarship (one entry per session attended).
These sessions are offered by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education, Minnesota Department of Education, ECMC The College Place and Minnesota Goes to College.

PSEO, CAREER AND COLLEGE INFORMATION
Announcing the Launch of Nuts N Bolts 2.0!
We’re excited to introduce Nuts N Bolts 2.0 — a refreshed and re-energized version of our organization, dedicated to supporting the mission and day-to-day operations of Minnesota New Country School (MNCS).
Nuts and Bolts began in 2013 as a staff-led team that recognized the importance and value of parent and guardian involvement in supporting MNCS. Over the years, it has been a vital behind-the-scenes force, helping our school thrive through volunteer efforts and fundraising support.
To align with financial best practices and regulatory requirements, Nuts and Bolts will no longer engage in fundraising activities. While this marks a shift, it also opens the door to formalize Nuts N Bolts 2.0 as an independent, school-affiliated organization.
With this next chapter, we’re building on a strong foundation to serve MNCS students, staff, and families in fresh and meaningful ways. You can expect more streamlined support, increased communication, and creative new ways to make a lasting impact.
This is your chance to get involved! (And if you’re thinking someone else will step up — they probably won’t )
