The Higher Education Cultural Roundtable (HECR) is soliciting proposals for grants to Tulsa-area schools to fund arts and humanities projects.

HECR, a consortium of Tulsa-area colleges and universities, will award "mini-grants" ranging from $50 to $250 to assist with schools' arts and humanities expenses including materials, equipment, supplies, guest lectures, artist fees and travel expenses to art events.

• Applications for the 2013 calendar year will be accepted through February 28, 2013.

The new A-F Oklahoma School Report Cards have been out awhile. The School Report Cards allow parents and students to gauge the success (or failure) of their school or potential schools. This is the first year the school report cards have been issued on an A-F scale and there has been some confusion about the scoring.
