Welcome to Precalculus!

Welcome to my PreCalculus class! You will need to bookmark this site because it will be the gateway to everything that we do in the classroom. Please check every Monday to see what we will be doing each week. I will post links to handouts on the days  that I use them.

It will be your responsibility to get the notes and the assignments whenever you are absent. Please follow school policy guidelines for when to turn in assignments when you are absent.

Please understand that posting the lesson is a courtesy. You could also “phone/text a friend” for a picture of their notes if my notes have not been posted yet.

If you know you are going to be out for extracurricular activities, please get your work before you leave.

When you are absent, then # of days out = # of days allowed to return work.
