World View HS International Potluck: April 11, 2025
Greetings World View Community,
We want to thank the students who returned the calculator contract. A TI-84 calculator is a great tool for each student to have as a true mathematician as it will help your child be successful in daily instruction, homework completion, Regents Examinations, the PSAT, and the SAT.
As a reminder, your child is responsible for the following:
Maintaining the working condition of the calculator
Bringing the calculator to school every day
Replacing the batteries when necessary
Replacing the calculator if lost or damaged
If your child does not bring the calculator to class, they will lose 5 points from their classwork grade and 5 points from participation grade for that day.
If your child has any questions, they should contact their mathematics teacher.
Thank you,
Ms. Flay
