Every class:

  • Lab notebook — bound, not loose paper
  • Pen and pencil
  • Scientific calculator (a phone will not be allowed on tests)
  • Charged laptop
  • Closed-toe shoes on lab days — no exceptions, you will be sent out

Lab days

Check the class page the night before. If it links an investigation, it is a lab day:

  • Tie back long hair
  • No loose sleeves or dangling anything
  • Bags stay at the front, not underfoot

Why closed-toe shoes

Broken glass and spilled chemicals go down. This rule is not about fashion, and I have no discretion about it.
