The Funhouse and Orcas Island High School are teaming up for the annual post-high school “Futures Fair” for Orcas Island high school students on Tuesday, Oct. 6 and Wednesday, Oct. 7.

Peg Keough, College Financing Expert, will offer an evening event for parents at the School Library at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. In her talk, “The Scoop on Financial Aid: Don’t Pay Full Price,” she will be discussing financial aid strategies, tax issues affecting savings plans, college funding options, and more. This is a great talk for parents with kids of all ages. Treats and coffee served.

The Funhouse is bringing expert college counseling consultant, Arlene Prince, and associate for a full schedule of presentations at Orcas Island High School. They will focus on college admission, high school curricular choices, standardized test performance, college choices, the college application process, and specifics every potential college student should know.

The college counseling consultants and financial education specialist will also be offering one-on-one advisory sessions specific to each students needs. Parents are strongly encouraged to call the Funhouse Commons to schedule one of these valuable sessions.

While there is no cost for these sessions, The Funhouse suggests making a donation to help defray the costs of bringing these top experts to our community.
