INDEPENDENT STUDY

Oyster River High School offers students the opportunity to earn credit on an independent study basis for projects and study topics which are not already offered in the school curriculum.  A student might pursue independent study in a certain academic area (poetry, for example) with a faculty member, or might work with the supervision of a sponsor in a career-related internship (on the job training in a prospective career field, for example).

Students contemplating an independent study are advised to talk with an appropriate counselor or faculty member about their ideas, then apply for independent study approval.  Independent study will last for one semester, and will enable the student to earn ¼ or ½ credit. Goals and objectives, as well as evaluation methods must be specified, and applications must be submitted prior to the time the project is undertaken.  Retroactive independent study credit will not be awarded.  Credit will not be awarded if the student does not complete the project.

Course that are Pass/Fail do not factor into the GPA/Class Rank and are not counted as a 5th class.
