Welcome to the 2014-2015 School Year!

Here is some sage advice from previous students:

Supplies for Schulenberg-Cole's Classes

The following are the suggested supplies that students will need for my classes:

1. 3-ringed binder (This will be your best friend for organization with class materials)
2. Loose-leaf paper (For binder.. pretty obvious)
3. Binder dividers. (Sectioning off class notes... class handouts... homework, etc.)
4. Familiarity with Google Drive and Google account. (This will be utilized often)
5. Pens (Anything turned into me will be in pen or typed)

6. Post-its. The little cube works best!
7. An open mind (Not sure if these are applicable during the tax-free weekend, or not) :)
