Hilliard City Schools invites K–8 families to attend an upcoming College Savings Meeting hosted by Hilliard College Counselor Trevor Maggied. This informative session is designed to help families better understand how to plan and save for college—no matter where you are in the process.

The meeting will take place on Wednesday, January 14 at 6:30 p.m. at Hilliard Darby High School. Childcare will be provided.

Families will hear from J.D. Archer, CFP® and Sara Canterbury, CFP® of Rider + Reinke Financial Group, who will lead a discussion on a variety of college funding strategies, including:

  • Before college: college savings accounts, cash savings, scholarships, grants, and other options

  • During college: student loans, parent loans, and work-study programs

Presenters will review the pros and cons of each option, highlight potential pitfalls to avoid, and share practical information to help families make informed financial decisions. A brief Q&A session will follow the presentation.

This session is a valuable opportunity for families looking to plan ahead and better understand the resources available to support their student’s future educational goals.
