The series, running on Tuesday evenings this fall, 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), 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 by higher education experts during the event. Students who attend any of the sessions will be entered into a drawing to win a $1,000 scholarship (one entry per session attended). Space is limited, so register soon! These sessions are offered by the Minnesota Office of Higher Education, Minnesota Department of Education, ECMC The College Place and Minnesota Goes to College.

The Century Panthers and John Marshall Rockets may be cross-town rivals who face off on the field, but ahead of this week’s football game between the two schools, they are teaming up for a Tackle Cancer fundraiser.
The two teams will go up against each other on Friday, September 19, but they are turning the game into a community-wide fundraiser to see which school can raise the most money.
Dollars raised through t-shirt sales, food truck purchases, and halftime donations will count towards each school’s total.
Starting at 4:30 p.m., fans can tailgate with a purpose by enjoying foods from local favorites like El Samurai, Corona’s tacos, Minne’SNO’da Shaved Ice and Sinners ‘Sota. Each vendor will donate a portion of their proceeds to Tackle Cancer.
Tackle Cancer t-shirts will also be available for purchase, costing $10 each, and all proceeds go directly to the cause.
Finally, during halftime, volunteers will pass donation buckets through the stands, and fans from both schools are encouraged to give and help their team win the fundraising battle.
Kickoff for the game is scheduled for 6 p.m.

Sometimes, knowing what steps to take can be hard when you are worried that your student's emotional or mental well-being might be impacted. RPS families have access to a confidential screener online at http://mentalhealthscreeningtools.com/. If the screener results indicate a reason for concern, or if you want to talk with a provider, schedule a free consultation with a mental health professional (https://ffcstaffconsults.as.me/).
The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is also available for people experiencing emotional distress, mental health crises, or thoughts of suicide. You can call or text 988 or chat online at 988lifeline.org to connect with trained counselors anytime, 24/7.
