TIPS TO KEEP BASIC/ADVANCED REGISTRARS HAPPY
Advisors must submit registration!!!!
To make sure you get a confirmation you need to be the one to enter registrations.
Registrations closes at midnight May 1 or until capacity reached
If both sessions are full then you will need to email the registrar with delegate names to be placed on the waiting list. Registrations after May 1 have a $25 late fee
All materials due by May 10!!! This means you need to mail all registration forms, health forms and payment. If you are paying with a PO, you MUST send a copy with the registration information. Materials received after May 10 will be billed a $25 late fee per delegate
If your students are paying with personal check, please gather them all and mail in one envelope.
Invoices - If you need an invoice please email registrar. Not all schools require an invoice so they are only sent per request.
Advisor Contact information - Please give good contact info on registrations. If there is a problem I will try email first then cell phone. If I do not hear back in a reasonable length of time, a call to the principal will be next. I DO NOT CORRESPOND WITH THE STUDENT OR THEIR PARENT
Workshop Information— Workshop information will be mailed to the student at their home address after the registrar receives ALL completed paperwork and payment.
BASIC SCHOLARSHIPS BASED ON FINANCIAL NEED DUE BY MARCH 15TH
The OASC will be offering up to twenty $125 scholarships to help students in need to attend the BASIC Leadership Workshop this summer. The OASC BASIC Need Based Scholarship application is posted on the OASC website. Applications are due March 15th.
Please note that these scholarships are based on FINANCIAL NEED, not accomplishments. Also note that we are considering applications incomplete when the student and advisor letters are not included.
DIVERSITY CONFERENCE DATE CHANGE TO 03/31/18 DUE TO CONFLICT WITH OU HSLC
TIME FOR AN OASC HASHTAG: #OKSTUCO
Hashtags on Twitter are an easy way for us share what is going with Student Councils at individual schools in the same vein as #OKPREPS has become the standard way to find high school sports updates. Hashtags are also a great way to do focused STUCO Chats on Twitter once a month in the same way Oklahoma educators meet up Sundays at 8 pm under the #OKLAED.
After some feedback from students, we would like to do a monthly one hour focused chat for #OKSTUCO starting in March. The @oascok Twitter will host the first chat and then we will let different schools host a chat on a selected topic.
Look for tweets from the January OASC Board Meeting at Bixby High School on January 29th to see what is in store for the 2018 State Convention.
Proud of something your STUCO is doing? Tag your tweet with #OKSTUCO to share it with the whole state!
