Student Schedules
If your student has an open time period in their schedule, please email Ms. Skalski at
[email protected].
Order Textbooks
Click
here for the updated Textbook list. Please note the following on the textbook list:
- In the first column, "R" is for Regular and "H" is for Honors and "AP" is for Advanced Placement.
- In the Last column "choice" means purchase either the e-book or the textbook.
- (Blue highlighted columns) can ONLY be purchased through Follett.
- US History is the same as American History.
- Textbook information needed for Polk State dual enrollment courses will be requested by the professor.
English Classes
The English classes will be using digital curriculum materials again this year. Materials for all regular and honors English classes will be delivered, completed, and submitted online. Rather than purchasing a textbook, each student in a
regular or honors class
is required to pay a materials fee for English for the 2017-2018 school year.
The fee is $45.00 per student.
Payment is due by August 14, 2017
.
Click here to purchasing information.
Dual Enrollment Classes
All students scheduled to take any dual enrollment with Polk State will need to take the PERT test. Students who have already taken the SAT or ACT test may be exempt from the PERT test if their scores are high enough. Please contact Polk State at 863.297.1000 to either set up the PERT test or confirm that you are exempt from taking it. Registration for all dual enrollment courses will be done at Santa Fe.

School Supplies
Santa Fe does not publish a complete school supply list for all courses; however, you will see below information for Algebra I and II. What we do suggest is that students purchase the necessities such as pens, pencils, paper, notebooks, etc. If there is anything specifically needed for a class, the students will be notified the first week of school.
Algebra I and Honors Algebra I
Classroom Supplies - needed by Thursday, August 10
- 1 package of graphing paper
- 1 package of loose-leaf paper
- 2 packages of pencils
Student Supplies - needed by Wednesday, August 9
- Spiral Notebook
- Calculator (Texas Instrument TI-30X IIS) - graphing calculators
will not be allowed
- Personal Pencils (pens cannot be used on any assignment)
Algebra II Honors
Please bring no later than Friday, August 11
- 2 packages of #2 pencils
- 1 package of 150 sheets of wide rule paper
- Graphing calculator: TI-84 Plus CE (Cost $88-$150)
IMPORTANT: The graphing calculator has to be the TI-84 Plus CE. If you are not sure, do NOT open it until Mrs. Maisonave approves it.
Mrs. Becker's Intensive Math Class
Computer Recommendations
All students are required to have a laptop.
Students purchasing new computers do not need to purchase Microsoft Office. Santa Fe provides each student with an Office 365 account.
Name brands such as Dell, Toshiba, Apple, Microsoft, etc., tend to have the best reliability and customer support.
One system that blends the best of both a tablet and a laptop is the Microsoft Surface 3 or 4. It utilizes a keyboard cover that allows it to function as a laptop, but this cover can also be folded back and allows the device to be used as a tablet. It has a touchscreen and runs the full version of the Windows operating system.
Chromebooks are not recommended.
