My Project

Although math is a difficult subject, our kids' dedication to learning and improvement has always impressed me. Whatever the difficulty of the material, they will ask questions until they fully understand it. Our department has the distinct honor of instructing high schoolers in the subjects of Algebra and Geometry. They work hard in school and have lofty goals for the future. Taking these classes and the ACT are also necessary for our students to graduate. Since many of our kids are unfamiliar with how to use this type of calculator, they are often at a disadvantage on the ACT.

No matter what path they choose, we hope our students find only happiness and success.

With these TI-84 calculators, our students will be better prepared for the ACT and for a lifetime of problem-solving success in mathematics. Providing our students with tools like these high-tech calculators is one way in which we can help them reach their full potential.
