Military parents will receive an important card Sept. 17, and filling it out and returning it can make a big difference in the quality of education Hillsborough students receive. The Enrollment of Federally Connected Pupils card must be returned to school by Oct. 8. The data collected can amount to from $500 and $1,000 per student in extra funding for schools. For more information, contact Hillsborough County Public Schools District Pupil Accounting Department at 272-4085. To help improve the quality of education for military children, parents living in Harbor Bay on base are being asked to complete a survey about the schools their children attend. The survey can be found at https://www.research.net/s/SchAgeSurvey and must be completed by Sept. 11. For more information, contact nelly.richards@us.af.mil or 828-0146.
