**Applied and integrated courses aligned to standards can meet credit requirements.It is important that you are aware of diploma options available in the Medford School District. Every effort will be made to help your child receive a
standard high school diploma. If you and a school team decide that it is not possible for your child, and if he or she meets the definitions of
eligibility defined by Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR 581-022-1134), you may opt for a modified diploma, an extended diploma, or an alternative
diploma. You and the school team should discuss what options are best for your child.Essential Skills: The Essential Skills (ESs) are 21st century skills needed for success in college, the workplace, and civic life. Oregon students are
required to demonstrate proficiency in reading, writing, and mathematics. The State Board has approv ed three assessment options for students to
demonstrate Essential Skill proficiency: (1) Smarter Balance State Test, (2) work samples using official scoring guides, or (3) other approved
standardized tests (e.g. SAT, PLAN, ACT, PSAT, Work Keys, Accuplacer, ASSET).Personalized Learning: These requirements personalize the diploma for each student and help prepare them for their post-high school goals.
Education Plan and Profile: Students develop an Education Plan and Profile to guide their learning and document academic achievement
and progress toward their personal, career, and post-high school goals.Career-Related Learning Experiences: Students participate in experiences that connect classroom learning with real life experiences in
the workplace, community, and/or school relevant to their education plan.Extended Application: Students apply and edžtend their knowledge in new and compledž situations realted to the student's personal and
career interests and post-high school goals through critical thinking, problem solving, or inquiring in real-world contexts.
North Medford High School Course Guide 2018-2019 7Career-Related Learning Standards (CRLS): Students demonstrate personal management, communication, problem solving, teamwork,
employment foundations, and career developmentModified Diploma: A modified diploma requires 24 total credits but the amount for each of the areas is different. A modified diploma
allows students to have transition services until the end year in which they turn 21. Students pursuing a modified diploma may qualify for
military service and financial aid. North Medford High School Course Guide 2018-2019 8NMHS TORNADO FUTURE CENTER
Scholarship Office
Students use the Tornado Future Center to search for colleges, apply for scholarships, write application essays, investigate careers,
meet with college and military representatives, and prepare for post-high school experiences. Reference materials and computers
for online search opportunities are available.ASPIRE PROGRAM
Administered by the Office of Student Access and Completion, ASPIRE (Access to Student assistance Programs In Reach of Everyone)
is Oregon's official mentoring program to help students access education and training beyond high school. Learn more at
www.oregonstudentaid.gov.Who may participate?
ASPIRE is for all students. It is an all-comer's program and serǀes the entire student body. Any student who belieǀes they can benefit
from an ASPIRE advisor is welcomed and encouraged to participate. By being inclusive, ASPIRE ensures that all of Oregon's students
have many options for a fulfilling future beyond high school.Who is an ASPIRE advisor/mentor?
Volunteer ASPIRE advisors are assigned to work one-on-one with students, guiding them through important steps toward post-
secondary education. The ASPIRE advisor position attracts a broad spectrum of adult volunteers. Many are parents/guardians of
students at the ASPIRE school, professionals, some of whom are the first in their family to attend college, or retired community
members. Volunteers do not have to have attended college themselves to be effective ASPIRE advisors.ASPIRE at NMHS
Our goal is to help all students thoughtfully plan for life after high school. Considering the individual needs and plans of students,
students and their mentors may work on a variety of activities including: ͻ Utilizing online skills and interest assessments ͻ Researching careers and vocational opportunities ͻ Research post-secondary educational opportunitiesͻ Completing college applications
ͻ Applying for scholarships
ͻ Exploring financial aid options
ͻ Planning ahead and keeping track of deadlinesTypically, students meet with their mentors from 20-40 minutes once every week or two, depending upon need. Students and
mentors plan meeting times with the ASPIRE Coordinator, and all meetings are held in the NMHS Tornado Future Center. Mentors
may choose to work with one or more students as they feel comfortable, and at times which are convenient for them. Every effort is
made to match mentors with students for the most success.If you are a student who would like to participate in ASPIRE, or if you are an adult community member who would like to become an
ASPIRE mentor, please contact Jeri Childress, Tornado Future Center, 541-842-1243 or jeri.childress@medford.k12.or.us.
