The month of May marks a milestone for many high school students in the Fairfield-Suisun and Vanden school districts.
This milestone comes in the form of not only the school year being almost over, but also as an important transition period for many high school seniors. Many of these seniors have to finalize their decision about where/if they plan to go to a postsecondary school, whether it be college or a vocational school. This is where Assist-A-Grad plays an important role, as many students come from single-parent households and difficult financial situations.
