December 1, 2014: 13 River Watchers from Crockett High School and Eastside Memorial High School attended a Financial Aid Workshop, hosted by Austin Community College. Jason Brassino led the presentation at the Rio Grande Campus and discussed sources of financial assistance, the application process, and responded to general questions about eligibility. As we were leaving the workshop and talking about the opportunities for all students, one River Watcher said “I have heard how expensive college can be and thought that I would probably not be able to afford it but now I know there is help available.” We returned to the EcoHouse for snacks and games.
