You can still pay cash for these games if you buy your tickets at the Bookkeeper's window up until the end of 2nd lunch on the day of the game, but no cash will be taken at the entrance going forward. QR codes will be posted at the entrances so that you may purchase tickets with a credit or debit card. You can also purchase tickets in advance online using the link on our Athletics website, www.fusd.net/summitathletics As always, if you have an ASB card, you get into all sporting events free! See you at the game!!! | |

Cash For College Webinar (Multiple Dates Available)

College and Financial Aid Applications
Attention Seniors! The application window for CSU, UC, and FAFSA/CA Dream Act is now open.
As a reminder, keep track of all the deadlines (UC/CSU schools, Private Colleges, scholarships, FAFSA/CA Dream Act), read the instructions, give sufficient time to recommenders to write your letter of recommendation, and provide all the requested information.
Your counselor is available by appointment to assist you with your college and/or financial aid application.
FSA ID
Seniors, if you haven’t already done so create your FSA ID.
