Información de Previsión y Programación

Estudiantes eligen sus cursos para el próximo año escolar durante la primavera con la ayuda de sus consejeros, maestros asesores, y padres. Estudiantes deben tener la firma de un padre así como la firma del maestro asesor indicando aprobación de las clases planeadas. Consejeros y maestros asesores proveerán a los estudiantes los materiales de inscripción en su clase de asesoramiento. Al seleccionar cursos para el próximo año, estudiantes deben:

 Verificar requisitos previos y los cursos que requieren la recomendación de un maestro.

 Verificar opciones de crédito. o Cursos que los estudiantes pueden repetir para crédito (i.e. acondicionamiento físico) tienen designaciones arriba de las descripciones de los cursos. Si no hay una nota que dice que se puede volver a tomar un curso, NO puede repetir el curso para crédito.

 Obtener firmas del maestro, padre, y maestro asesor, cuando se requiere, antes de entregar el formulario de previsión.

 Elige un mínimo de 4 clases electivas alternativas por si acaso la primera selección no está disponible. o Unas clases no estarán enseñadas por falta de bastante inscripción; otras tendrán demasiados estudiantes inscritos por el espacio disponible; y para otras no habrá espacio en el horario del estudiante puesto a un conflicto. o Si estudiantes no proveen suficientes clases electivas alternativas, se les programarán en una clase abierta que NO eligieron.

 Inscríbete en cinco o más clases por trimestre (estudiantes del último año se inscriben en un mínimo de 3 clases por trimestre.

Se les enviará información a los estudiantes durante el verano que contiene detalles acerca del proceso de registración en agosto. Durante registración, estudiantes tienen la oportunidad de sacar fotos de Identificación, pagar deudas pendientes, conseguir un permiso de estacionamiento, obtener un casillero, prestar libros de texto, y recibir su horario por el año.

Cambios de Clases

Los estudiantes deben cuidarse al elegir clases durante la previsión porque se permite pocos cambios y solo para razones legítimas:

1. Horario incompleto

2. No hay requisito previo en el horario

3. Ya recibió crédito para un curso en el horario

4. Falló un curso antes con el mismo maestro, si sea posible

No se permite a los estudiantes cambiar su horario porque fallaron a investigar bien las descripciones de los cursos o si entregaron un formulario incompleto durante la previsión.

Dejando Clases (Vea las razones legítimas arriba)

Los estudiantes pueden pedir dejar una clase en los primeros cinco días de escuela de cada trimestre.

Si se acepta, no habrá pena. Después de cinco días, dejando una clase resultará en recibir un “F” en la clase por el trimestre. La marca aparecerá en el expediente académico del estudiante y se calculará en el promedio de calificaciones.

Tarea de Verano

Muchas clases AP y de Honores requieren tareas de verano que es debido en el otoño. Busca en el sitio web de OCHS para asignaciones de verano. Serán puestos en Junio.


Políticas Académicas

Calificaciones

El procedimiento de calificación del Distrito Escolar de Oregon City está diseñado reflexionar los logros académicos y el desarrollo de ciudadanía. Las letras de las calificaciones pueden proveer información del desempeño académico, animar crecimiento académico, y crear un registro de los logros académico. Una letra de calificación se base en la evaluación profesional de un maestro de los logros de un estudiante en las siguientes áreas: completando asignaciones, puntación de pruebas, maestría de habilidades pertinentes, manejando abstracciones, y la aplicación de conocimiento. Los maestros se los proveerán a los estudiantes una explicación escrita de las expectativas y el sistema de calificación para el curso de estudio.

Los estudiantes están responsables de arreglar los incompletos (“I” en una boleta de calificación). Se debe arreglar los incompletos dentro de 30 días después del fin del periodo de calificación. Si no se completa el trabajo, la calificación cambiará de una “I” a una “F.”

Mejorando una Calificación por Repetir un Curso

Los estudiantes pueden repetir un curso para mejorar su calificación. Se debe hacer el curso en OCHS, y tiene que ser el curso exacto. Los consejeros pueden guiarlos cuando esto sea posible. Si la calificación mejora, se registrará la nueva calificación en el expediente académico del trimestre en que se repitió el curso. La marca original cambiará a una N, y la calificación nueva se calculará en el Promedio de Calificaciones (GPA). El consejero del estudiante debe aprobar los cursos que se hacen para mejorar un grado antes que se repite la clase. No se permitirá clases de restablecimiento para reemplazar una calificación. No se puede ganar crédito del mismos clase dos veces, a menos que se especifica en la descripción del curso.

Requisitos de Admisión a la Universidad

Se anima a todos los graduados a participar en algún educación o entrenamiento después de la escuela preparatoria. En la Escuela Preparatoria de Oregon City queremos que nuestros estudiantes sean preparados para elegir de una variedad de opciones después de la escuela preparatoria.

Creemos que “listo para la universidad” y “listo para el trabajo” son lo mismo, así que, se hace hincapié a preparar a los estudiantes para la universidad. La parte más importante de este proceso es que los estudiantes se inscriben en clases desafiantes durante los cuatro años de la escuela preparatoria. Cuando los estudiantes aceptan esta responsabilidad y logran todos los requisitos para el diploma de la Escuela Preparatoria de Oregon City, ellos han logrado la mayoría, si no todos, los requisitos curriculares para admisión a los siete campus del Sistema de Universidades de Oregon.

Estos requisitos son:

Inglés (4 créditos) incluso el estudio del idioma inglés, la literatura, la habla y escucha, y la escritura. Se debe ganar por lo menos 1.0 crédito de una clase de durante el penúltimo/último año.

Matemáticas (3 créditos) incluso Álgebra 1, Geometría, y Álgebra 2 o mayor. Se requiere a los estudiantes tomar tres créditos de matemáticas en la escuela preparatoria. Sin embargo, se avisa a estudiantes continuar tomando cursos de matemáticas durante su último año.

Ciencias (3 créditos) incluso 1.0 crédito de ambos Ciencias Biológicas y Ciencias Físicas de ciencias preparatorias para la universidad. Se avisa a estudiantes continuar tomando ciencia en su último año.

Ciencias Sociales (3 créditos) incluso 1.0 crédito de Estudios Mundiales, 1.0 crédito de Historia

E.U. o AP Historia E.U y 1.0 crédito de una clase de Económicas y una clase de Gobierno E.U. o AP

Gobierno Comparativo y Política o AP Económicas.

Segunda Lengua (2 créditos) del mismo idioma en la escuela preparatoria.

La Universidad de Oregon requiere 16 créditos académicos, en vez de los 14 escrito arriba.

Además de los requisitos, un candidato a cualquier universidad del estado debe lograr un GPA determinado (lo cual varia por la escuela) y debe tomar por lo menos uno de los examines de entrada a la universidad: SAT y/o ACT. No se aceptará una clase principal con un “D” en el

expediente académico.

La mayoría de las universidades privadas y unas escuelas de estado en otros estados tienen mayores estándares de admisión que lo que viene arriba. Se anima a estudiantes y padres/guardianes obtener información específica de las universidades que consideran. Se puede encontrar esta información en sitios web.

In AP Music Theory students listen to great music, and explore how it works. The premise is that music is a language and we hope to discover why it has the effect on us that it does. What are the patterns--the vocabulary--that Bach uses, and how do they compare with and differ from those of Mozart, Beethoven, and even Chopin? How do composers develop their ideas, and what compositional techniques are universally employed? How do composers create expectations, and do they fulfill them or frustrate them? Band and/or Choir are not prerequisites to taking Music Theory. However, although a previous musical background is not mandatory, it is highly recommended.

Senior Project

SENIOR PROJECT


Graduation Credit: Senior Project

Grades: 12

A Senior Portfolio is required of all students to meet graduation requirements. The Senior Project course is offered to provide support to students as they design and create their Senior Portfolio. The Senior Portfolio will include a proposal, evidence of completion of 20-35 hours of project work, career-related learning experiences, a job shadow and interview, a reflective report (Relevance, Rigor, and Reflection), and an oral presentation. The following standards must also be demonstrated: Career Development, Employment Foundations, Personal Management, Problem Solving, and Teamwork.

Students must earn a C- or better to pass this class.

State and OCHS Diploma Requirements:

Senior Project is an opportunity for students to learn about topics that truly interest them and apply their knowledge and skills in real world activities. Students design projects to fit the way they like to learn (i.e. a research project or hands-on activity).

The state requires students to complete an extended application of something they have learned as one of the graduation requirements. Here is how the state describes it:

“An opportunity to apply and extend academic and career-related knowledge and skills in new and complex situations appropriate to the student’s personal, academic, and/or career interests and post-high school goals.”

Most students do the Senior Project in a one trimester Senior Project class. This is designed to guide students through all the steps required and provide them with class time and teacher guidance to help them be successful in meeting all the standards. A few regular classes include the requirements for Senior Project and can take the place of a separate Senior

Project class. Students, who wish to complete the Senior Project requirement through one of these classes, must have permission from the teacher. Currently, Honors Drama 4, Construction 3 and 4, and Advanced Writing: Fiction and Poetry may be used to complete the requirements.

Students will be expected to do their Senior Project no earlier than the summer immediately before their senior year. If a student is doing a summer project, it is required that prior written approval be secured.
