Dear Fast Start Students and Families,
Please join us for a mandatory informational meeting on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at 5:30 PM in the High School Cafeteria.
This meeting is a critical step in preparing for the upcoming term. During this time, we will distribute required textbooks and host representatives from Shawnee Community College, who will be available to provide important program updates and answer questions.
Because students will receive their essential course materials at this event, attendance is required for all program participants and at least one parent or guardian.
We look forward to seeing you there and starting the semester strong.
