    Calculator Information

    calculator Many courses recommend the use of a calculator. Algebra 1 requires it. Any student who does not have a calculator may borrow a TI-83 or TI-83 Plus calculator from the math department. You must return your calculator at the end of the year in order to clear all obligations. If the calculator is lost, stolen or damaged while in your possession you must pay the full price of the calculator ($90). To borrow a calculator, see Mrs. Schreckengost in the Math Office, room 217, before school, after school, or during lunch. Supplies are limited. See Mrs. Schreckengost today.
