SHHS Calculator Information In order to better prepare students for the technological world in which they must live and work, the Sacred Heart High School Math Department requires all students enrolled in a math class to have a graphics calculator for classroom and homework use. Students may rent a calculator through the school or acquire one elsewhere. Although they are not required to have a specific brand/model graphics calculator, the Texas Instruments TI-84+ will be used as the “official calculator” in all math courses. To provide equity for students and ensure that they are not dependent on the calculator for certain tasks, calculators with certain advanced computing features, such as the TI-89, will not be permitted this year. To preserve equity in testing situations, certain calculators with advanced capabilities may not be allowed for use on classroom tests. Students purchasing a calculator are encouraged to buy the TI-84+. Other calculators that are acceptable for class are the TI-83+ and the TI-84+ Silver Edition. You must pay the front office and show Mrs. Collier Damiani your receipt before a calculator will be issued to a student. Please Pay by Cash or you can make checks payable to Sacred Heart High School. To rent a TI-84+: Return a completed Rental Contract and cash or check for $40.00 for the year. Priority will be given to students who pay rental fees on time. Late payment could result in a delayed delivery of several weeks. Rental calculators will be issued only if both a completed Rental Contract and rental fees have been received. Each student is responsible for the security of his/her own calculator, and renters must pay for lost/stolen/damaged rental calculators. Rental calculators are engraved with a Sacred Heart High School identification number. Students who purchase a calculator should arrange through their math teacher to have it engraved with their name or use the engraver available. The school system will keep a log of serial numbers and will assist in locating lost calculators whenever possible. NOTE: Students may not use the TI-89 in the classroom during the school year. Furthermore, other calculators with computer algebra systems like the TI-89, will be disallowed. Check with a math teacher if you have questions whether a model not listed here will be permitted in the classroom. Note: There will be no calculator sales through Sacred Heart High School, we do not sell them. If you have questions regarding calculators, please [email protected] or at 323-225-2209 ext 43 contact Mrs. Collier Damiani SHHS Informacíon de Calculadora Para mejor preparar nuestras alumnas para el mundo de tecnología, el Departamento de Matemática de Sacred Heart High School requiere que todas alumnas quienes toman clases del Algebra 2 Honores o mas avansadas tengan una calculadora gráfica para usar en clase y para la tarea.
