    October 8, 2019 Dear National College Access Network, On behalf of Arizona’s college access professionals, the signers below and the Arizona College Access Network (AzCAN), a program of College Success Arizona, would like to recognize the National College Access Network (NCAN). NCAN’s investments in FAFSA completion have played a vital role in creating both expertise and capacity around increased FAFSA completion rates in Arizona. AzCAN is pleased to have been selected by NCAN to participate in the Kresge FAFSA Completion Challenge in 2016. Through this project, Phoenix Union High School District (PUHSD) worked collaboratively with AzCAN and aligned community partners, like Be A Leader Foundation and Arizona State University (ASU) to exceed the 40% FAFSA completion goal set by the City of Phoenix and increase college-going rates for the graduating high school class of 2017. The grant funds supported the district’s college marketing campaign and FAFSA drives as well as summer collaboration efforts with high school counselors. Based on the district’s collaborative FAFSA completion success, it received additional reward money from NCAN to continue raising FAFSA completion rates for the high school class of 2018. Not only did the Kresge FASFA Completion Challenge help low-income and underrepresented students in Phoenix successfully access federal state and institutions financial aid, it also catalyzed a community-led movement to increase FAFSA completion rates for all high school seniors in Arizona. In Spring 2017, the Arizona State Board of Education, guided by stakeholders, educational partners and AzCAN members, redefined the meaning of college and career ready to include completion of the FAFSA in Arizona’s accountability system.

    Preparing Every Student for Success In College, Career and Life. PHOENIX UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release May 13, 2016 Contact: Craig Pletenik (602) 764-1530 Michelle Halama-Alcantar, [email protected] Phoenix Union College-going Seniors Helped by Foundation Scholarships PHOENIX--The Phoenix Union Foundation for Education awarded scholarships this year totaling $88,330, assisting 48 District seniors in furthering their education at Arizona colleges and universities next year. This year’s amount puts the Foundation’s scholarship totals over $1 million dollars since its inception. The Foundation for Education, a 501 (c) (3) that supports pathways to success in college, career and life, and provides support for District-wide, college-going student programs and college scholarships, began in 1985 as the Phoenix Union Partnership of Business and Education. In recent years, it has concentrated on generating need- based scholarships for PUHSD students. Scholarships ranged from $100 annually to $8,000 over a four-year academic career, distributed from a pool of scholarship resources, from individual and organization donors to employee contributions and fundraising events. Seven seniors received four-year scholarships of $8,000 each—Vivian Mercado, Bioscience; Ellen Lam, Central; Abigail Orona, Cesar Chavez; Ricardo Ornales Montes, Carl Hayden and Andrea Gonzalez, Camelback. Suntec Concrete provided two more $8,000 scholarships to Yurian Bustamante of Franklin and Melina Florez of Metro Tech. Named scholarships to 17 students totaling $18,630 were supported by various community, business and PUHSD staff, family and friends to recognize loved ones, support students, or as part of a fundraising sponsorship.
