All science students will need an approved science notebook this year. Mr. Rudolph will provide all other materials used in class. If you have any difficulty purchasing this exact notebook, please contact me. If there is a financial hardship, please have a parent or guardian contact me via email and a notebook will be provided by the teacher.
(periods 1, 3, 5) (periods 4, 6):
The first 48 students to visit me after school between 2:45-3pm can purchase one for $5. Also, 3-5 subject notebooks of the same make and model are acceptable, but get quite heavy. The 100-page single-subject notebook has just the number of pages we need.
