Cacluators
Students will be expected to bring their own calculator to every math class. For classes up to Pre-Calculus, a scientific calculator will suffice. We are supporting the TI-30XS MultiView (TM). Pre-calculus students may use a scientific calculator or graphing calculator. Calculus and Statistics students at all levels must bring a graphing calculator with them daily. We are using TI-83+ and TI-84 series (regular, Plus and Silver Edition) graphing calculators.
