To this end, these course descriptions are accompanied by additional information about specific class expectations. Prerequisite courses include all coursework or skills that should be completed prior to enrollment in the specific course. Some required courses have no prerequisites, but may indicate a recommended grade level at which the course may be taken. Schedule & Credit Questions Adding/Changing a Class Requests for class changes must be initiated prior to the beginning of a semester or up to two weeks after the semester begins. These requests will only be considered on the basis of availability. Completion of the request for change does not assure that the class change will be approved, Students must follow their schedule until a change is made. Dropping a Class at Semester Most courses are year long and require a year long commitment. Courses terminated after four weeks into the semester will be recorded on the transcript as an “F” (failing grade). Year long classes may not be dropped at semester unless there are extenuating circumstances. Audit A class may be taken on an audit basis without credit only with instructor consent. A change to audit status must be made before the deadline for dropping classes each semester. Students must consult with counselor and teacher when considering a course for audit. Reasons to audit a class: • Students who enter school after the last day to drop a course and do not have ample time to earn a credit for the class. Auditing allows them to attend classes at RPHS and not receive failing grades. • If there are extenuating circumstances and the student has a plan approved by teacher, counselor and administrator. Repeating Courses for a Replacement Credit • Students may request to repeat any course in which the student has previously earned assessment scores below proficiency. • The grades and credits from the original course, as well as the repeated course, will be documented on the transcript. The repeated course’s grade is issued as core credit and the original course will be changed to elective credit toward graduation. • Requests are to be reviewed and approved or denied by a team at the building level including, but not limited to, the counselor, subject area teacher, student, parent/guardian and administrator. Repeatable Courses for Original Credit Acting 1-2 Directing Illustrations Theatre Band – all courses Drawing Leadership 3 Management/Production Ceramics Elementary Mentor Orchestra Work Experience Digital Photography Guitar Stagecraft Yearbook Student Aide Credits Earned Off Campus By district policy, a student may earn up to eight units of credit while in high school from off-campus experiences. This credit must be granted from accredited institutions and programs. A student must have prior approval from the Assistant Principal of Curriculum to receive credit for any off-campus study. • College, summer school, and/or evening school credits will be accepted for makeup or for situations in which the classes are either not available at the high school or not available because of scheduling conflict.

  • Geographic Implications of the Fiddling Tradition in Oklahoma
    GEOGRAPHIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE FIDDLING TRADITION IN OKLAHOMA By JAMES HUBERT RENNER 1/ Bachelor of Science University of Oregon Eugene, Oregon 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May, 1979 ~ /979 7( '-/14q QQp. 2_ c ~W51vfA~ fo+~-- ~)', 0 UNIVERSITY (' LIBRARY GEOGRAPHIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE FIDDLING TRADITION IN OKLAHOMA Thesis Approved: 1,029474- ii PREFACE This thesis is a combination of two longstanding in­ terests--geography and fiddling. The background and origin of this unique study was fostered by Dr. Everett Smith, my undergraduate advisor at the University of Oregon, who first encouraged me to pursue a course of study which would com­ bine the two. Following my graduation of Oregon, I journeyed to Penn State University to attend the first meeting of the emergent Society for a North American Cultural Survey (SNAGS) and to meet Dr. George Carney, who had pioneered geographic re­ search in traditional American music. I later joined the graduate program at Oklahoma State University to work under Carney. While conducting my graduate studies, I received a Youthgrant from the National Endowment for_ the Humanities to establish an Archive of Oklahoma Fiddlers. This project was begun in the summer of 1976 and completed in the fall of 1977. During this same period of time, I was chosen to serve as "Resident Folk Artist" for the Oklahoma Arts and Humanities Council. Both of these experiences provided in­ valuable experience and information concerning music and culture in Oklahoma which became the foundation of this re­ search.

  • Universiw Micrœlms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microOIming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will Hnd a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
