<p>If you speak with the SDE<a></a> about the 2009 SB 290 it no longer applies. We spoke with Melissa White earlier this year and were instructed it was local district's determination. Although we refer to this list of courses and honor these it seems perhaps
more can be approved locally. In fact if you attempt to locate this list on line...it is not found.

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, serif">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...
