My Project

As we look forward to next year, we’re trying to get prepped and ready with supplies we need. Things like colorful, copy paper and fresh new lanyards will help us get off to a good start.

Our math department does activities like scavenger hunts in the halls, where students go from one math problem to another.

This is engaging but goes more smoothly if they can carry a clipboard with their assignment on it.

We have changed from a school that offers the SAT to a school that offers the ACT. Some new ACT preparation materials would help my students who are interested in studying on their own.
