January PA Meeting to Address College Financing, Military Services

The next meeting of the MCSM Parents' Association, will take place on
Tuesday, January 13, 2009 at 6:00 pm.

We are pleased to announce two guest speakers for the evening who will address issues related to college financing. Our first speaker will be a representative of Making It Count, an organization that sponsors presentations around the U.S. advising parents on various aspects of college financing. We hosted a Making It Count presentation two years ago at MCSM, and their program was very informative and extremely well-received by the parents in attendance.

Our second speaker will be a representative of Students or Soldiers?, an organization that advises parents on the legal issues of military recruiting on high school campuses. More relevant to our meeting on January 13, their representative has agreed to discuss the U.S. military services program to finance college education for young men and women who have entered and completed their military service commitments. As you will learn, the military service program for college financing is not so simple and clear-cut as you might think.

We look forward to seeing you there on January 13. Please join us!
