10:00 AM LATE START on Monday, February 17, 2025. No morning activities, breakfast, weightlifting, and no 3-year-old Preschool due to the late start. Busses run accordingly. After consulting with the National Weather Service in Hastings, Hall County Road Officials the decision was made to have a 10:00 AM LATE START due to road conditions and out of an abundance of caution. While we realize this isn't the most convenient for our families, the safety of our students, staff, and families is our priority.

As we have now entered the month of February, I wanted to send a message highlighting the most pressing "tasks" for Seniors right now. As always, if you have any questions, concerns, or needs, please do not hesitate to reach out to me anytime!
1 - SCHOLARSHIPS
We are in the thick of Scholarship Season! Keep up to date on all scholarship deadlines as most private scholarships are due between February and March. Any scholarship information that is shared with my office at school will be available on my DTHS Scholarship List . https://nikkisjuts.weebly.com/seniors.html
I update this spreadsheet as often as I can, but at least every 2 weeks right now.
2 - FAFSA
A reminder that ALL seniors are required to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as a Nebraska State Graduation Requirement. I have included my previous in-depth information about the FAFSA at the bottom of this message, but here are a couple of resources that can provide your family assistance in this process. I know that this can feel like a daunting task, but there is help available!
FAFSA COMPLETION SESSION:
I recently received information about some FAFSA Completion Sessions in which financial aid professionals from Central Community College, Hastings College and UNK will assist seniors and their families with completing the FAFSA process! This looks like an awesome opportunity to get FAFSA help - check it out if you are still stressed about the FAFSA process! You must have your FSA ID process completed before attending - ideally 3 days before the session.
The remaining sessions are:
Saturday, February 8 at CCC-Kearney Center - 9am-Noon
Saturday, February 22 at CCC-Grand Island - 9am-Noon
Link to Information Form: CCC FAFSA Completion Session Form
EDUCATION QUEST
EducationQuest is a free service that is available to help answer any of your questions about the FAFSA process. These people are AMAZING and are more than willing to help with the entire process, any questions, or if you have issues completing any part of the FAFSA. Please utilize them as they really are the experts! Simply go to: www.educationquest.org to get in contact with them!


Our preschoolers were not at school on Friday when we announced our January students of the month, so they get their own post today! These kiddos have been safe, respectful, and responsible at school! Keep up the great work.


Our January teacher of the month is Mrs. Dyer! Mrs. Dyer taught our preschoolers last year, but moved up to teach 2nd this year! Mrs. Dyer has a great sense of humor and builds great relationships with her students. Mrs. Dyer has worked hard to learn all about 2nd grade and has worked well with her teaching partner to prepare fun engaging lessons for all students. Congrats Mrs. Dyer! We are so happy to have you here at DT.
