  • 7th Grade Math: Composition notebook (very important!), pencils, a folder for handed back work, loose-leaf paper, 2 whiteboard markers, and any other pens or highlighters you feel will enhance your note-taking. A free reading book will also be required every day.
Please try to have these supplies by Friday, August 9th.

Attached below is a copy of the parent's homework. There will also be a hard copy sent home during the first full week of school and is due within the first two weeks of school.
