Attention all students and parents--Do you have an Android phone? If so, there is an app available that allows you to download a TI-84 Calculator for free! While you are not allowed to use these on any standardized tests (including ACT and EOC), this can be very useful for homework. Some teachers may even allow them to be used in class for daily work (but not for tests or quizzes). The apps name is Wabbit emu. It can be downloaded on google play. We suggest that you download the TI 84 C SE version as this is the most recent release by TI--in color!
Seniors, Please remember when applying to colleges, most will require a statement from your counselor. Please print out the counselor form after completing your application and drop off to me for completion. *** JCPS does not support or authorize use of ""send edu"".
