PHEAA will present information on the financial aid application process, what types of aid are available for students, and strategies to start thinking about affordability before getting ready to apply for post-secondary school admission. Time will be built into the presentation to allow you to ask any questions you may have regarding the financial aid process.
The Northgate Board of Directors has voted to return to in-person learning beginning on Thursday, November 5. The district will be operating in a hybrid model to allow for social distancing at all times.
