The TI-84 Plus Silver Edition or CE (handheld) graphing calculator will be used in Howard County mathematics courses beginning with Algebra 1 and extending through the end of the mathematics course sequence. Although students will be provided with a graphing calculator for use in school, and have the ability to borrow one for out of school use, students may opt to have their own personal handheld graphing calculator. Students who go on to take mathematics courses in college will often be able to use the same calculator for college course work.
