This is an example of the calculator that will be allowed on the state tests. Other calculators will not be permitted. Cost is about $10. Students are expected to have their own TI-30Xa calculator in class daily.Schoology Information
Parents,
Landrum has recently begun a pilot program with the Schoology learning management system. Schoology is a secure online program that serves as a central hub for learning. Teachers can create, manage and share information and resources with their students. Students using Schoology can get class assignments, link to readings and guides selected by their teacher, collaborate with classmates, take tests and quizzes, and work on self-paced learning activities. Here at Landrum, all teachers will be posting Daily Board Agendas (DBAs) to ensure all students and parents know what is being taught in the classroom. Parents and students are given login information.

Cell Phones
Students using their cell phone devices/earbuds during the school day has become an issue. Board policy require that all electronic devices be turned off, stored in student’s backpack, purse, or locker. The device shall not be used during the school day without administrative approval (classroom teacher) or on school buses to and from school. Electronic devices must remain stored during classroom transitional periods. Failure to comply may result in the device being confiscated. Repeated failure to comply will be considered defiance of school rules.
Attendance
Any student who has been absent from school shall provide a note from a parent or guardian within forty-eight (48) hours of returning to school stating the cause of the absence. If the student missed school due to an appointment, a note from the provider must be turned in within forty-eight (48) hours of returning to school. Failure to provide a note will result in an automatic unexcused absence. Notes can be turned in at the Front Office or emailed to [email protected]
However, the fact that the student provides a note does not require the school administration to excuse the absence. The principal or designee will decide whether the absence meets the criteria for an excused absence, and that decision will be final.
After fifteen (15) days of absence, whether excused or unexcused, a student must present verification from a licensed doctor for all subsequent absences due to illness.
