In The Classroom
5th Grade/6th Grade
General Guidelines
Please bring a water bottle to school every day.
High school students must have a laptop or access to a computer that has internet capabilities and a word processor (e.g., Microsoft Word, Pages, or Google Docs) and a presentation tool (e.g., PowerPoint or Google Slides).
High school students must have access to a laptop or tablet (no smaller than an iPad mini) to bring to school as needed for use in class for research and other teacher-designed purposes. Cell phones will not be allowed to be used as a calculator or research/study tool or for internet access in the classroom or on school grounds.
Realize that as supplies run out, students may need to purchase more throughout the school year. For example, if a student runs out of paper or her pens run out of ink, the student will need to bring more paper or pens to school.
