From counselors at lists.onenet.net Wed Apr 2 14:23:46 2014 From: counselors at lists.onenet.net (OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board) Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2014 14:23:46 -0500 Subject: [Counselors] Fw: Re[2]: QUESTION: OAM In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Don't get me started!!!!! BUT.. We have parents wanting to opt out of both OCCT and OCCRA I questioned why an item tryout or field tests should effect the report card...misleading answers ........ What the heck!!! The question about the 95% and the OCCRA tests As follows with the answer from Joyce Defur!! Good morning! Could you clarify something for me! The Item Tryout tests given by Measured Progress. We are to test 95% of our students--do our students need to do a makeup test if they aren't here? and how do these item tryout tests effect our school report card? Thank you! Joyce's answer: By law, there is no distinction made between item tryouts and regular operational testing. Both are required under the same law since operational testing is dependent upon valid piloting, and both are subject to the same rules and penalties which is overseen and governed by the State Board. Whether this rule will be enforced or whether the State Board would determine for the penalty to go against a school's accreditation report would be for this board to determine. You should make every effort to test all possible students. Joyce Rule states that schools must have tested at least 95% and if they don't, their school letter grade would be lowered by one...if 90 % or less, it is automatic F SO IF we don't have 90% we get an "F" on an ITEM TRYOUT!!! for our school, that is 9--yes NINE students opting out..... HAVE I COMPLETELY MISUNDERSTOOD? WHERE DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE. I too love my job---working with students and parents---but this testing takes AWAY from our real purpose and that is teaching/serving our students. Thanks for the opportunity to RANT!!!

I am not the DTC though- I am just my BTC (but I do everything and then hand it over to my testing administer). I do teach a counseling class all day for two day every other week (a new class every 30 minutes). I have only 3rd & 4th grade in my school which is about 435 students. Guymon Public Schools do pay an extra $2000 above state base salary.

We are going to add the statement if they are "currently enrolled" in that course. I know for the A-F report card the exemption will give us one point. (Proficient and Advanced scores are given only one point.) However, when teachers receive their results, what is the benefit to them? The students exempt would more than likely score advanced, which would help the teacher. Any help with that? Our teachers are concerned that their top students are not going to test.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: GUYMON SCHOOLS SUMMARY: ALL Certified Staff (excluding administration) start at $2,000 above state required (steps and degrees included) ALL Counselors are paid an additional $3,400 for working 10 extra days split between before school begins and after last day (basically we work August 1st-May 31st.) Duties are distributed by grade level we counsel but no extra monies are applied: PK-2nd- have no testing but go into classrooms as part of the duties. Grades 3-8 have access to District Test Coordinator as in an advisory role and one of correcting errors or misunderstandings with online issues. WAVE uploads all testing information automatically. 3rd-4th- state testing "upload and behind scenes" is covered by registrar and counselor but administered by teachers. The counselor does go into classrooms as part of the counseling duties. 5th-6th- state testing "upload and behind scenes" is covered by registrar and counselor and online testing administered by counselor but paper tests are administered by teachers. The counselor does go into classrooms as part of the duties. 7th-8th- state testing "upload and behind scenes" is covered by District Test Coordinator and counselor and online testing administered by counselor (if we had one...currently a superintendent has stepped in). Normally, the counselor does go into homerooms if information needs passed to a group as part of regular duties. 9th-12th- 2 counselors at HS split duties. The District Testing Coordinator (separate job from any certified staff member but under superintendent's certification and sign-off) uploads and tracks EOI takes and retakes. Counselor responsibilities are test administration only. This year we have only had to be out of our offices 15 days so far with retakes and have 10 more scheduled in Spring window. We are thankful for only 25 of our days messed up with testing this year as opposed to the years when tracking and uploads were the counselor's responsibility. Duties we split: IEP, 504, Food Pantry, teaching a college readiness/communications in conflict course, senior scholarships, student advocate and mediators, enrollment, grief counseling, GEAR UP coordinator, OK Promise pushers, School Improvement team. I know far more was listed in the high school area, not because we do more than the others WE DON'T, but because I know exactly what we do! All of Guymon counselors have between 400-450 students to their charge and all do a fabulous job. We are just too busy to sit down and talk about what we do. I am in no way complaining about the job asked of us nor the pay received for it. I feel blessed to be a part of a district that is trying to let counselors be counselors. It is a tough job but I feel like we make a positive difference and are supported by our administration and our school board for doing so. Everyone chips in where needed. (This is evident in the fact that no counselor could be found for the junior high this year and all other counselors/admin have helped bridge the gap for the 400+ students.)

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I think that the pay for counselors is left up to the individual districts to decide. I noticed before I became a school counselor that it does not specifically say on any pay schedule on the OSDE website how much counselors are supposed to be paid. It does not even have a base salary.?I believe that this causes there to be a vast difference in the interpretation of where to begin when determining salary base.? I am fortunate that I work for a district that considers the work that I do and pays me fairly for it.? My superintendent called me at the beginning of the summer after my first year and stated that she was going to put me on a 12 month contract because it was obvious that there is no beginning or end to my duties. Yes, this means I have summer work hours, but as I said before, I am paid fairly for that. I think that something needs to be done on the state level to make counselor's salaries more consistent like those of teachers and also takes into consideration ALL of the responsibilities/duties that we are assigned as well as?the number of hours/days/months per year we work in order for things to go as smoothly as they do (despite constant changes in testing process). ?

I used to have to come 5 days early in the Fall and stay 5 days late in Spring for nothing until a new counselor told them no. Then they divided what we made by180 and multiplied by 10 to pay us extra. The sad thing is it would cripple the schools--and rightly so--if we all refused all the extra work. Many schools do not have counselors because no one will do it. Know of a school who doesn't have football because no one will do it? Right!!

URL: From counselors at lists.onenet.net Mon Apr 7 09:33:35 2014 From: counselors at lists.onenet.net (OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board) Date: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 09:33:35 -0500 Subject: [Counselors] Concurrent enrollment In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Guymon High, in accordance with ACE legislation and SB 290 session 2009, shall govern the concurrent enrollment, dual credit, and EOI testing of any Guymon High School student who wishes to participate in college classes during his or her junior and/or senior year.... This is the beginning of the policy Guymon has on dual credit that had to be implemented by state law. Here is another section taken from the policy and law: The following higher education courses commonly taken through concurrent enrollment have been reviewed by the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) and approved for academic credit: College Algebra = 1 unit Algebra II General Biology = 1 unit Biology II General Botany = 1 unit Botany Eng Comp I = 1/2 unit Eng IV Eng Comp II = 1/2 unit Eng IV Intro to Chemistry = 1 unit Chemistry Chemistry I = 1 unit Chemistry Am. Hist early = 1/2 unit US Hist Am. Hist late = 1/2 unit US Hist Intro to Geography = 1/2 unit World Geog Am. Fed. Govt. = 1/2 unit Am. Government Intro to Speech = 1/2 unit Speech Courses not listed and for which academic credit is sought may be submitted to OSDE for review of course curriculum alignment with the Oklahoma Priority Academic Student Skills. We actually allow classes worth 3 or fewer credits to be valued at 1/2 high school credit and those valued at 4 or greater to have a value of 1 credit at the high school. (This too is stated in the policy.) Our College Algebra usually is counted as part of the required 4th year of math at Guymon High since most students have taken Algebra II by the time they choose concurrent. The reason this law came into effect was because many schools were doing their own thing with no standard: some schools refused to count concurrent for any high school credit, some schools "over" counted things addressed in the law by using AP exam credit in the junior year English as both English 3 credit for taking the course and English 4 credit for passing the test, and still others were very random in handling concurrent and AP courses. When students transferred from one Oklahoma school to another, they were losing credits they thought they had and were being blocked from graduation in other schools, therefor requiring summer school or attendance the next year... To clean and clear it up, SB 290 session 2009, was written.

This is the beginning of the policy Guymon has on dual credit that had to be implemented by state law. Here is another section taken from the policy and law: The following higher education courses commonly taken through concurrent enrollment have been reviewed by the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) and approved for academic credit: College Algebra = 1 unit Algebra II General Biology = 1 unit Biology II General Botany = 1 unit Botany Eng Comp I = 1/2 unit Eng IV Eng Comp II = 1/2 unit Eng IV Intro to Chemistry = 1 unit Chemistry Chemistry I = 1 unit Chemistry Am. Hist early = 1/2 unit US Hist Am. Hist late = 1/2 unit US Hist Intro to Geography = 1/2 unit World Geog Am. Fed. Govt. = 1/2 unit Am. Government Intro to Speech = 1/2 unit Speech Courses not listed and for which academic credit is sought may be submitted to OSDE for review of course curriculum alignment with the Oklahoma Priority Academic Student Skills. We actually allow classes worth 3 or fewer credits to be valued at 1/2 high school credit and those valued at 4 or greater to have a value of 1 credit at the high school. (This too is stated in the policy.) Our College Algebra usually is counted as part of the required 4th year of math at Guymon High since most students have taken Algebra II by the time they choose concurrent. The reason this law came into effect was because many schools were doing their own thing with no standard: some schools refused to count concurrent for any high school credit, some schools "over" counted things addressed in the law by using AP exam credit in the junior year English as both English 3 credit for taking the course and English 4 credit for passing the test, and still others were very random in handling concurrent and AP courses. When students transferred from one Oklahoma school to another, they were losing credits they thought they had and were being blocked from graduation in other schools, therefor requiring summer school or attendance the next year... To clean and clear it up, SB 290 session 2009, was written.

This is the beginning of the policy Guymon has on dual credit that had to be implemented by state law. Here is another section taken from the policy and law: The following higher education courses commonly taken through concurrent enrollment have been reviewed by the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) and approved for academic credit: College Algebra = 1 unit Algebra II General Biology = 1 unit Biology II General Botany = 1 unit Botany Eng Comp I = 1/2 unit Eng IV Eng Comp II = 1/2 unit Eng IV Intro to Chemistry = 1 unit Chemistry Chemistry I = 1 unit Chemistry Am. Hist early = 1/2 unit US Hist Am. Hist late = 1/2 unit US Hist Intro to Geography = 1/2 unit World Geog Am. Fed. Govt. = 1/2 unit Am. Government Intro to Speech = 1/2 unit Speech Courses not listed and for which academic credit is sought may be submitted to OSDE for review of course curriculum alignment with the Oklahoma Priority Academic Student Skills. We actually allow classes worth 3 or fewer credits to be valued at 1/2 high school credit and those valued at 4 or greater to have a value of 1 credit at the high school. (This too is stated in the policy.) Our College Algebra usually is counted as part of the required 4th year of math at Guymon High since most students have taken Algebra II by the time they choose concurrent. The reason this law came into effect was because many schools were doing their own thing with no standard: some schools refused to count concurrent for any high school credit, some schools "over" counted things addressed in the law by using AP exam credit in the junior year English as both English 3 credit for taking the course and English 4 credit for passing the test, and still others were very random in handling concurrent and AP courses. When students transferred from one Oklahoma school to another, they were losing credits they thought they had and were being blocked from graduation in other schools, therefor requiring summer school or attendance the next year... To clean and clear it up, SB 290 session 2009, was written.

Since we were selected and are doing "try-outs" in addition to the many operational tests, the number of extra questions and the time it took to test caught us off guard. The new testing client requires advanced technology, so many of our computers are not able to accommodate, and our computer lab schedules are a delicate balance in sharing with all the other testing in our district. So far we have just done the English Multiple choice. While this new TA manual for spring estimates 60 minutes for each section for English 2, I can tell you this was NOT the case. Our Eng 2 multiple choice had 80 questions including some constructed response. We started first thing in the morning and most were barely done by lunch, some took longer... Our special ed group (that would have previously been taking an OMAAP) tested from 8:30am- 1:30pm with only a break. We would have let them go to lunch after section one if we would have known how LONG section 2 was... Not to mention, you have stressed kids close together in a lab trying to concentrate and read, then you've got the kids next to them that are already on the constructed response typing away on the keyboard which makes distracting noise!!!!!!!! Anyway, any advisement on time frame from those who have already administered any of the other subject tests would be great.

We have learned that three calls to DHS from different individuals speeds up their response to your issue. However, they have ALWAYS quickly checked into reports I have made with regard to suicide. First, however, I meet with the student privately. We discuss the issue. It's helpful to know how much planning the student has done. When does he plan to do it? Where? How? How will he get there? Etc. The more you know, the more DHS can help. If the student will permit me, I take a picture in the event of cutting, etc. DOCUMENT EVERYTHING! Don't allow the student to be alone. I try to encourage the student to allow me to contact his parent. Usually the student will give you permission and then you don't have to worry about whether or not you are breaking confidentiality.

Don't let the distance scare you!! Students are great to work with and for! As financial perks, we are payed $2,000 above step and we also get a $3,400 counselor stipend to work 10 extra days beyond the school calendar. The position is for 7th and 8th grade and no others. This is my 8th year and have been blessed and excited to come to work 7 of them! (The 2nd year was a bit rough but has completely been taken care of since that time.) The other counselors are a blessing to work with and have a wealth of knowledge that they willingly share when needed. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and I'll do my best to give the information you request. dana.martin at guymontigers.com Come join us!!
