Guidance Department
Applying for Financial Aid
1. All financial aid begins with the (FAFSA) Free Application
for Federal Student Aid. The forms can be completed on
line at www.fafsa.gov. This application is the basis for
qualifying for any federally or state funded financial aid
program. Some individual colleges may require a CSS
Profile in order to obtain additional financial information.
2. Families and students should complete their taxes as
soon as possible. With this information, fill out the FAFSA
and send it in. It is an advantage to complete the FAFSA
early. (If you cannot complete your taxes early, do not
wait. You may use estimates, but you will be required
to provide verification later.)
3. Within 3-6 weeks, the Department of Education will send
you an acknowledgement which includes your Expected
Family Contribution and any eligibility for the Federal Pell
Grant. The EFC is the amount of money that your family
is expected to contribute toward the student’s education.
This amount stays the same regardless of the cost of the
school to which the student applies.
4. Your college(s) will use the EFC to determine your
financial need with a simple formula: Cost of the school
– EFC = Financial Need. For example, if the cost of the
school is $16,000 and your EFC is $9,000 then your
financial need at that college is $7,000.
5. It is then up to the college to try to meet that need. Your
college will then construct a financial aid package that
may include scholarships, grants, loans, and work study.
You will receive notice of that package in an Award Letter
from the financial aid office.
Just Say “NO” to
Unsupervised Spring
Break Trips
We are approaching the time of
year when your senior and sometimes
your junior student is being approached
by fellow classmates and travel agency
representatives to consider a spring break to
Mexico or other tropical destinations. Many trip packages
include such things as: 36 hours of free drinks; hotels across
the street from 5 major bars; foam dancing; and drinking
boat tours. Eastview High School does not authorize nor do
we promote these spring break trips. Eastview’s Parents
Are Key (PAK) and Eastview High School believe groups of
students should always be supervised by parents or teachers
during spring break trips. We see these trips as a serious
health and safety issue for your teen. Because nothing is
more important than the health and safety of our children, we
are including this information to Eastview parents to caution
you about a real and serious threat to your child’s health and
safety. The Star Tribune ran a 3-day series of articles about
teen drinking. Those articles created a clear, yet frightening
description of what happens when teens are allowed to go to
Mexico during spring break.
1. “More than 1,000 Twin Cities-area high school students
flocked to this mecca of drinking, parties, sun and sex
last spring, enabled by parents who don’t say no.”

Letter from the AD about new South Suburban
Conference
I have had the wonderful opportunity over the last sixteen
years of serving as a teacher, coach, administrator and now
Athletics Director in District 196. For all of those years,
plus my own entire elementary, middle and high school
experience were spent as a member of the prestigious Lake
Conference.
This year begins a new chapter in Eastview Athletics as
we join nine other members to form the brand new South
Suburban Conference. In addition to the four District 196
schools (Apple Valley, Eagan, Eastview, and Rosemount) the
conference is made up of five familiar faces from the Lake
Conference (Burnsville, Bloomington Jefferson and Kennedy,
Lakeville North and South) and one new one (Prior Lake)
from the Missota Conference. While we will stay maintain
non-conference relationships with Eden Prairie, Chaska and
Chanhassen in many sports, the new conference will allow
us to limit the travel and school time missed for conference
games. Most importantly we are able to reduce expenses,
but still maintain the shared philosophy of academic, arts
and athletic excellence with our other member schools.
There is no question our teams compete against the “best
of the best” each and every game when they face South
Suburban Conference competition. This fall our teams
were extremely well represented at the Section and State
level. Two of our schools (Lakeville North and Apple Valley)
took home state champion honors in volleyball and boys’
soccer respectively. A number of other teams and schools
had extremely successful seasons culminating with state
tournament runs.
One of the best parts of this premier athletic conference is
the shared commitment to good sportsmanship from school
administrators, coaches and fans from all member schools.
The Minnesota State High School League’s Advisory
Committee on sportsmanship is called “Team Up.” Their
slogan for 2010-11 asks all fans to be sure you “bring it”
every night. Bring what, you may ask? Bring your positive
energy, bring your loud supportive cheers, and bring your
best support for all participants, all officials, all coaches
and all fans. The South Suburban Conference schools are
already leading the way in this area for all schools around
the state.
While the talent, rivalries and competition in this conference
are enjoyable to watch for any fan of high school sports,
this shared vision and philosophy are what sets it apart.
The South Suburban Conference is quickly becoming the
example for what is “right” in the world of high school sports
and we are very proud to be a part of the new tradition.
