A big thank you and congratulations goes out to Ms Putnam Genz and Mrs Wulf as Columbus has been recognized as a FAFSA Focused School of Excellence! The efforts of our counselors to support students through completing the FAFSA and opening opportunities after high school has been impactful. With lessons taught to seniors, one-on-one meetings with families and seniors, and partnering with ICAN for a FAFSA night, the Class of 2025 had a 75% FAFSA Completion rate, up 8% from last year.
This honor is also shared with all staff who supported the Class of 2025, the parents/guardians who completed their portion of the FAFSA, and the seniors of 2025 for continuing to set and achieve their goal
