Hi!
We're excited for a new school year. Please make sure you are ready to learn. This means you have proper sleep the night before a school day and have a good breakfast the morning of school.
Scholars should have the following for science:
1- 3 ring binder: 2 inches (at least 1 1/2" - 2”)
This binder will be used for science only.
1- pack of dividers: 5-8 dividers needed
1- composition notebook (science fair must
have)
1- pack of pencils
-
If mechanical, supply with lead too
1- each color pen: blue, black, red
1- highlighter: any color
1- colored pencils
1- glue stick
2- packs of looseleaf paper: college ruled
1- pack of graph paper
1- set of earbuds (for online HMH videos): NO headphones or airpods. NOT optional.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your scholar's science teacher.
