Your personal educational plan deserves serious thought and careful planning. All OCSA students have access to their school counselors to help them choose courses that will meet high school graduation requirements, college admissions requirements, discuss various post-secondary and career pathways, and to support them in the enrollment process. High school counselors are located in Student Services (T 101) in the Humanities Tower.  \nA MESSAGE TO PARENTS  \nIt is important that our students make the most of their middle and high school experiences. This can be done only if parents help their children become aware of all courses, programs, and services that are available at school and assist them in developing their own educational programs. To formulate a successful program, consideration must be given to graduation requirements, college/career goals, and the student’s interests and abilities.  \nWe encourage you to use this handbook as a source of information on courses oﬀered at Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) .  \nPREREQUISITES  \nStudents should check carefully to see that they have taken the proper prerequisites for courses and have received the necessary grades to move forward to their next level of coursework. Entrance prerequisites for Upper Level, Honors and Advanced Placement classes are designed to ensure that students are prepared for the rigorous academic environment of the class. Prerequisites include both foundational classes that must betaken and an expected end of course ﬁnal grade. Students may only waive into an advanced class if they have taken the prior course(s) necessary to enter an advanced class, but have not met the end of course grade requirement.  \nCREDITS  \nIt is very important that ﬁnal grades are checked each semester to ensure accurate reporting. Credits are awarded for passing the semester ’s work unless the student is repeating an academic class that has already been passed with a grade of C or higher.  \nChallenges to ﬁnal grades must be made in writing to the counselor and teacher of record within 15 days of the ﬁnal reporting of grades and grade changes after the 15-day timeline will not be granted. Only the teacher of record can make a grade change and grade changes will only be made in rare situations where  \nCourse Selection  \ntypographical or calculation errors can be established. If the written request for a grade change is denied, the parent/student may make one written appeal to OCSA administration. The written decision of OCSA administration is ﬁnal.  \nIn the rare event that a student cannot complete coursework requirements before the posting of the ﬁnal semester grades, the student may request in writing to the teacher of record and counselor to take an“incomplete” in the course. The approval for an incomplete grade will be made at the discretion of the teacher of record. If approved, the student will be granted up to 15 school days to complete and submit any work. A ﬁnal grade will be issued after the 15-day timeline extension. School Counselors can help answer any questions about this.  \nWEIGHTED GRADES POLICY  \nOrange County School of the Arts (OCSA) Advanced Placement courses and selected Honors courses, completed with a grade of C or better, shall receive a weighted grade point.
