[Okepas] FW: OK EPAS Scholars Certificates

[Autry, Valarie]

Good afternoon.

Many of you have already signed up using the survey in the email below to get your EXPLORE and PLAN certificates. If you have not yet signed up, please see the email below.

I have been made aware that some people have not been able to edit the EXPLORE certificate. I have fixed that and am attaching it.

If you have not yet received your list, but have already completed the survey, I am working on it in order of Awards Assembly date and you will be getting them soon.

Thanks!

Oklahoma Colleagues:



OK EPAS Scholars, now in its thirteenth year, is a State Regents' program aimed at recognizing students for their collegiate preparedness as early as the eighth grade.  We encourage you to consider the delivery of these certificates at a special event in your school-either by giving them as part of your awards ceremonies this spring, or through other special venues.



Your OK EPAS Scholars' roster will include students who scored at or above the College Readiness Benchmark in any subject area on the EXPLORE or PLAN test. These scores indicate whether students, based on their performance on EXPLORE or PLAN, are on target to be ready for first-year college-level work when they graduate from high school.  The ACT College Readiness Benchmarks are:






EXPLORE


PLAN


ACT


English


13


15


18


Mathematics


17


19


22


Reading


15

21


Science

Reasoning

24




·                PLEASE NOTE:  Because of limited resources and staff time we will not print the certificates.

·                 THIS IS THE PROCESS FOR 2013:

o   Click on the following link and fill out all of the information asked. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/EPAS-certificates This will allow us to know to whom we need to send the information.

o   Once we receive the list from ACT:

§  An email will be sent to the contact person that was listed in the survey results. Attached will be an Excel file of your student roster AND a Word copy of the certificate.

§  Emails will be prioritized by the date of your awards assembly.

o   If you have any questions please direct your email to epas at osrhe.edu<mailto:epas at osrhe.edu>.

Thank you for your support of students through EPAS and for your leadership on your campus,
Cindy
