На цій сторінці буде надано контрольний список, інформацію про церемонію та будь-яку іншу необхідну інформацію. Церемонія вручення дипломів Щоб студент міг взяти участь у щорічній червневій випускній церемонії Epic, усі вимоги до курсової роботи мають бути виконані до офіційного останнього дня навчання.

Рекомендований диплом для студентів Epic Students – це диплом підготовки до коледжу/готовності до роботи. Необов’язковим, менш суворим напрямком є базовий навчальний курс. Більше інформації щодо напряму основної навчальної програми можна отримати у відділі підтримки випускників. Epic не схвалюватиме форми GED для студентів віком до 18 років. Раннє закінчення Студенти та батьки студентів, які виконали вимоги для дострокового випуску, повинні підписати форму, яка підтверджує, що вони виконали вимоги для дострокового випуску. Якщо студент виконає всі вимоги до закінчення навчального року, його/її все одно буде запрошено взяти участь у щорічній випускній церемонії Epic у червні. Якщо їм буде потрібно підтвердження закінчення середньої школи до червня наступного року, диплом та/або інший подібний доказ закінчення середньої школи буде надано їм на запит. Учні старших класів, які не були класифіковані як старші на початку навчального року, мають можливість прискорити виконання курсу та взяти участь у церемонії випуску в червні за умови, що вони виконають усі вимоги до курсу до офіційного останнього дня навчання в тому ж календарному році, що й щорічний червень Церемонія вручення дипломів. кваліфікація Попередня кваліфікація для початку Усі студенти, які готові закінчити навчання в червні, матимуть право на випуск Повідомлення про кваліфікацію та офіційне запрошення на випуск будуть зроблені після 1 березня.

Щоб бути визнаним у друкованій випускній програмі як Superintendent або Principal Honor Roll honoreer, Valedictorian або Salutatorians, студенти повинні закінчити перший семестр останнього курсу не пізніше 30 квітня. Якщо за допомогою прискореного навчання студент закінчує перший і другий семестр свого останнього курсу в період з 30 квітня по 30 травня, він все одно буде визнаний лауреатом Почесного списку суперінтенданта або директора через те, що він носитиме почесний шнур під час церемонії. Однак вони не будуть вказані в програмі як такі почесні, оскільки програма друкується з 1 по 30 травня.

Ви можете забронювати сеанс через них на grandlifephotography.com/ . Frequently Asked Questions Як відбувається реєстрація студентів? Посилання на реєстрацію буде доступне на цій сторінці та надіслане електронною поштою випускникам, які відповідають вимогам, протягом кількох місяців до церемоній. Чи можуть студенти брати участь у більш ніж одній церемонії? Ні, студенти можуть брати участь лише в одній церемонії. Скільки гостей може привести студент? Випускники, які беруть участь, можуть приводити скільки завгодно гостей. Коли пенсіонери отримають повідомлення про свій статус? Ми почали сповіщати учнів у лютому та продовжуватимемо надсилати нагадування та сповіщення до кінця навчального року. Як обирають виконавців державного гімну? Якщо ви студент Epic і бажаєте виконати національний гімн на одній із наших церемоній, просто заповніть форму нижче. Чи може випускник попереднього класу Epic брати участь у цьогорічних церемоніях? Якщо вони не змогли відвідати рік випуску через пом’якшувальні обставини, ми співпрацюватимемо з випускниками, щоб вони могли взяти участь в одній із церемоній. Ми просто просимо, щоб під час реєстрації вони вибрали «Клас 2022 або раніше» на вкладці, що випадає, із запитом на оцінку студента. Якщо у вас є запитання чи сумніви, зв’яжіться з нами за адресою epicevents@epiccharterschools.org. Чи обов’язкова участь випускників старших класів? Ні, але ми наполегливо заохочуємо всіх випускників відвідати й відзначити цей важливий момент у своєму житті. Скільки триває церемонія? Ми намагаємося, щоб кожна церемонія тривала менше двох годин. Зазвичай кожна церемонія триває приблизно 90 хвилин. Чи можуть випускники пройти по сцені з дітьми? Ні, цей день зарезервований лише для випускників, кількість місць обмежена. Крім того, наявність маленьких дітей на майданчику була б потенційною проблемою (і відволіканням). Я вважаю за краще використовувати ім’я, відмінне від мого офіційного імені. Чи можна прочитати моє бажане ім’я під час церемонії та вказати його в програмі? Абсолютно. Ми просто просимо вас повідомити нам. Студенти зможуть написати своє ім’я так, як вони хочуть, щоб його називали під час церемонії. Але в дипломах має бути зазначено офіційне ім’я студента. Якщо ім’я випускника змінено на законних підставах, офіційні документи, що підтверджують юридичну зміну імені, повинні бути подані до архіву, і ми відповідним чином оновимо диплом. Це стосується і випускників минулих років. А якщо випускник має особливі потреби? Кожен із закладів відповідає вимогам ADA, і перед тим, як Epic уклала з ними угоди, ми обговорювали, щоб усе, включно з постановкою, було повністю доступним для всіх випускників. Крім того, ми тісно співпрацюємо з нашою сертифікованою командою спеціальних служб, щоб забезпечити житло ВСІМ випускникам, які цього потребують. Ми просимо вас вказати потреби випускника під час реєстрації. Хтось із нашого відділу спеціальної освіти зв’яжеться з вами перед церемонією, щоб переконатися, що їх команда готова допомогти випускнику та зробити цей день особливим для всієї вашої родини. У нас також будуть спеціальні тихі кімнати для випускників, яким потрібен тихий простір у день випускного. Чи буде віртуальна церемонія? Цього року ми не проводимо віртуальну церемонію. Ми проведемо шість живих церемоній. Проте кожна церемонія транслюватиметься в прямому ефірі на сторінці Epic у Facebook, facebook.com/epiccharterschools і домашню сторінку веб-сайту epiccharterschools.org. Записи кожної церемонії буде завантажено на веб-сайт Epic і Epic YouTube канал. Подивіться, щоб їх додали на цю веб-сторінку після церемонії. Слайд-шоу буде? Люди похилого віку можуть завантажувати свої фотографії для слайд-шоу, яке відбуватиметься перед початком кожної церемонії. Через розмір цьогорічного випускного класу ми обмежуємося однією фотографією для кожного учня, і для кожного місця будуть окремі слайд-шоу (див. нижче).

План включає низку заходів для вирішення різноманітних проблем та непередбачених обставин, які можуть вплинути на діяльність та навчання на тлі продовження поширення COVID-19 та пов'язаних з ним варіантних штамів. Дізнатися більше Звітність про COVID-19 Державний департамент освіти вніс зміни до своєї попередньої політики щодо звітності про COVID-19, яка тепер вимагає від шкіл повідомляти про випадки зараження та інфікування COVID серед учнів, які навчаються віртуально, а також серед шкільного персоналу, який працює/викладає віртуально. Це означає, що будь-якого студента чи співробітника Epic, який тісно контактував з особою, у якої тест на COVID-19 виявився позитивним, або в якої сам тест виявився позитивним, буде попрошено повідомити про це Epic, щоб ми могли повідомити про це штату. Будь ласка, надішліть заявку нижче через Incident IQ. Дізнатися більше Повідомлення про азбест Закон про реагування на надзвичайні ситуації, пов'язані з азбестом, від 1986 року вимагає перевірки всіх будівель шкільного округу на наявність азбесту. Школа Epic Charter School виконала цей закон. Плани управління, що документують ці перевірки, знаходяться на розгляді громадськості. Щоб ознайомитися з Планом управління, будь ласка, зв'яжіться з нами за адресою facilities@epiccharterschools.org або зателефонуйте за номером (405) 749-4550 у звичайні робочі години.

Політика Чартерних шкіл Epic полягає в забороні будь-якого цькування будь-якої особи в школі. Заборонена поведінка включає випадки цькування, спровоковані використанням електронних засобів зв'язку, спеціально спрямованих на учнів та/або шкільний персонал. Ця політика поширюється на всі школи, що входять до складу округу. Цькування – це антисоціальна поведінка, яка може відбуватися особисто або в онлайн-просторі школи, і вона відволікає як учня, на якого спрямоване цькування, так і учня, який бере участь у цькуванні. Цькування учня на основі його раси, кольору шкіри, віросповідання, інвалідності, статі, сексуальної орієнтації, віку, релігії чи будь-якої іншої особистої характеристики є підставою для дисциплінарного стягнення. 70 Оклахома. Штат. Розділ 24-100.3. Кроки для повідомлення про булінг: Про випадки булінгу слід повідомляти у «Формі звіту про булінг округу», яка має бути доступна для учнів у будь-який час протягом звичайних шкільних годин, зокрема в головному офісі/приміщенні мікросайтів, а також її можна отримати у шкільному консультаційному відділі. Надішліть форму вчителю або директору з навчальної роботи. Будь-яка особа, яка повідомляє про випадок булінгу, також може зробити це за допомогою застосунку Protect OK . Звіти можна подавати анонімно; проте жодних офіційних дисциплінарних заходів не буде вжито виключно на підставі анонімного повідомлення.

Альбутерол – це інгаляційний препарат, який швидко відкриває трубки, що переміщують повітря в легені та з них, полегшуючи дихання. Цей препарат є безпечним та ефективним. Оскільки напад астми може статися будь-коли, швидкий доступ до альбутеролу важливий для забезпечення безпеки шкіл для дітей з астмою. Кілька співробітників школи вашої дитини пройшли навчання для швидкого та безпечного реагування на респіраторні невідкладні ситуації. Хоча шкільний персонал докладе всіх зусиль, щоб зв’язатися з батьками, перш ніж давати альбутерол, закон дозволяє їм вводити альбутерол у надзвичайних ситуаціях без попереднього контакту з батьками. Якщо у вашої дитини астма, ми наполегливо рекомендуємо вам повідомити школу вашої дитини та надати їй план дій щодо астми від лікаря вашої дитини. Оскільки стандартний інгалятор альбутеролу не призначений для заміни особистого інгалятора дитини, ми також рекомендуємо вам надіслати особистий інгалятор альбутеролу для використання в школі, якщо у вашої дитини астма. Якщо у вас є будь-які запитання чи занепокоєння, будь ласка, зв’яжіться з Джессікою Джонс – Jessica.Jones@epiccharterschools.org Безкоштовні обстеження зору Звітність Stonegate Microsite February 19, 2026 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. REGISTER HERE Tulsa Logan Building March 12, 2026 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. REGISTER HERE OKC 50 Penn Place February 12, 2026 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. REGISTER HERE OKC I-35 South Microsite March 12, 2026 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. REGISTER HERE OKC Brixton Square Microsite February 5, 2026 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. REGISTER HERE

ПРО EPIC Пошук коледжів, фінансової допомоги та стипендій є досить індивідуальним та особистим, але це не повинно бути стресом. Команда підготовки до коледжів і кар’єри Epic Charter Schools зібрала багато цінних ресурсів, які допоможуть вам почати життя після закінчення середньої школи. Міка Берк Консультант з питань фінансової допомоги та стипендій micah.burk@epiccharterschools.org ЧИ ПІДХОДИТЬ ВАМ EPIC? Epic Family Calendar Financial Aid and Scholarship Sessions/Events Epic College & Career Financial Aid and Scholarship Recordings ЧИ ПІДХОДИТЬ ВАМ EPIC? Здобуття вищої освіти, будь то коледж чи програма CareerTech, може бути чудовою інвестицією в життя! У школах Epic Charter Schools ми знаємо, що інвестиції мають свою ціну. Ми прагнемо співпрацювати зі студентами та їхніми сім'ями, щоб надавати інформацію, ресурси та підтримку, необхідні для пошуку та отримання фінансової допомоги тим, хто обирає коледж чи програму CareerTech після закінчення середньої школи. Costs Associated with Higher Education Four Main Ways to Pay for Higher Education Витрати, пов'язані з вищою освітою Вартість навчання: Вартість навчання – це вартість курсів. Кожен заклад та програма CareerTech стягують власні тарифи на навчання. Плата: Плата – це витрати, що стягуються навчальним закладом, включаючи, але не обмежуючись, курси, обладнання, заходи, паркування та технічне обслуговування. Книги та приладдя: Для більшості курсів потрібні спеціальні підручники та різноманітне приладдя, таке як ноутбук, зошити, ручки та олівці, а також спеціалізовані лабораторні та програмні матеріали. Проживання та харчування: Студенти, які обирають проживання в кампусі, якщо житло є варіантом, сплачуватимуть за кімнату в гуртожитку, включаючи ліжко, письмовий стіл, комунальні послуги, Wi-Fi та план харчування. Існує чотири основні способи оплати за вищу освіту Гранти: Гранти часто надаються на основі фінансових потреб. Більшість грантів надаються урядами штатів або федеральним урядом. Право на отримання державних та федеральних грантів часто визначається на основі безкоштовної заявки на федеральну допомогу студентам (FAFSA). Гранти зазвичай не підлягають поверненню, за умови, що студент виконує всі вимоги. Стипендії: Стипендії присуджуються студентам на основі різних критеріїв, включаючи фінансові потреби, академічну успішність та/або таланти. Важливо ознайомитися з офіційними правилами та деталями щодо критеріїв відповідності, сум грантів, термінів подання заявок та іншої інформації. Стипендії можуть пропонуватися вищими навчальними закладами, а також різними організаціями, фондами та приватними особами. Більшість стипендій вимагають від студентів заповнення безкоштовної заявки на отримання федеральної допомоги студентам (FAFSA). Заявки на стипендії безкоштовні. Стипендії не потрібно повертати. Позики: Позики – це позичені кошти, які необхідно повернути, часто з відсотками. Студентські позики можуть надаватися федеральним урядом, приватними фінансовими установами або іншими джерелами. Федеральні студентські позики, забезпечені шляхом заповнення безкоштовної заявки на федеральну допомогу студентам (FAFSA), можуть пропонувати багато переваг порівняно з іншими варіантами позик, включаючи нижчу фіксовану процентну ставку, відсутність перевірки кредитної історії чи поручителя, гнучкі плани погашення та можливі варіанти списання позики. Робота (Federal Work Study): Робота, включаючи посади за програмою Federal Work Study, дозволяє студентам заробляти гроші, щоб оплатити навчання в коледжі. Право на участь у програмі Federal Work Study часто визначається на основі безкоштовної заявки на отримання федеральної допомоги студентам (FAFSA). Програма Federal Work Study забезпечує неповну зайнятість, як у кампусі, так і поза ним, для студентів бакалаврату, магістратури та професійних програм, які навчаються у вищих навчальних закладах-учасниках. ЧИ ПІДХОДИТЬ ВАМ EPIC? Безкоштовна заявка на отримання федеральної допомоги студентам (FAFSA) – це захищена форма, що пропонується Міністерством освіти США у рамках програми федеральної допомоги студентам, яка визначає право студентів на отримання фінансової допомоги від уряду та більшості вищих навчальних закладів. FAFSA – це ключ, який відкриває можливості отримання грантів, позик та можливостей навчання за програмою Work-Study. Багато стипендій також вимагають заповнення FAFSA. FAFSA збирає особисту та фінансову інформацію від студентів, а в багатьох випадках і від їхніх спонсорів, а потім застосовує формулу для визначення необхідного обсягу фінансової підтримки. Важлива інформація FAFSA слід заповнювати лише протягом останнього року навчання учня у середній школі, а потім щороку під час навчання у вищому навчальному закладі. FAFSA відкривається 1 жовтня кожного року або пізніше. Oklahoma High School Graduation Requirement FAFSA Processes Вимога щодо закінчення середньої школи Оклахоми Починаючи з 2024-2025 навчального року, для закінчення державної середньої школи Оклахоми, акредитованої Радою освіти штату Оклахома, учні повинні заповнити та подати безкоштовну заявку на отримання федеральної допомоги студентам (FAFSA).

Важливо ознайомитися з офіційними правилами отримання стипендій та деталями щодо умов участі, нагород, термінів та іншої інформації. Стипендії можуть бути призначені на основі академічних заслуг, фінансових потреб, особливих обставин, раси, етнічної приналежності та/або освітньої програми чи спеціальності. Internal Scholarships External Scholarships Внутрішні, або інституційні, стипендії зазвичай стосуються фінансової допомоги, що надається вищими навчальними закладами. Внутрішні стипендії, що надаються певним закладом, не підлягають передачі іншим закладам. Студенти можуть подати заявку на внутрішні стипендії в коледжах, де вони подали заявку на вступ. Студенти повинні ознайомитися з правилами отримання стипендії, включаючи процес подання заявки та терміни, встановлені вищим навчальним закладом, перш ніж подавати заявку. Зовнішні, або сторонні, стипендії присуджуються організаціями, які не пов'язані безпосередньо з вищими навчальними закладами. Зовнішні стипендії можуть пропонуватися організаціями, фондами та приватними особами.

В Epic ми розуміємо, що виховання дітей може бути складним, особливо коли це пов'язано з допомогою у навчанні дитини шкільного віку та турботою про інших, хто ще не шкільний. Саме тому ми розробили бібліотеку ресурсів, що надають особисту підтримку та відповідають особливостям розвитку дитини, щоб допомогти нашим сім'ям Epic підготувати кожну дитину, яка перебуває під їхньою опікою, до школи. Бібліотека ресурсів Epic Beginnings містить матеріали, що зосереджені на таких навичках, як грамотність у ранньому дитинстві, комунікація, математика та природничі науки, харчування та послуги загального благополуччя, які роблять сильний акцент на навчанні через гру та розвитку дитини в цілому. Коротше кажучи, ми хочемо допомогти кожному батькові Epic підготуватися до першого дня в школі, коли б і де б це не відбувалося.
