Note: Students should bring a TI-83, 84, or 84plus calculator if they have one. Some will be available for use during class so you are not required to purchase one for the bridge. You will not be allowed to use the TI-89 (or similar versions) during the summer bridge.
A typical day will follow the schedule shown below. The first and last days will vary a little to allow for student check-in and closing ceremonies. The Summer Bridge Program will end at 2:00 PM on the last day.
