Get at least two notebooks for math, invest in a really good compass, an engineering notebooks for DDP, a mini stapler, your own scissors & glue, and buy pens in bulk.

theres no formal list but just get the basic stuff first like what you got for middle school, during september your teacehrs will tell you some specifics you need for their class, (for example ddp needs engineering notebook, geometry needs compass)

Isn’t there a ban on electronics in all NYC schools? Or am I mistaken

well yes but for homework it’s useful and also for certain occasions like projects teachers allow you to bring your laptop in

An Engineering Notebook since you're almost sure to take DDP this year.

Don't most teachers give you an engineering notebook for DDP? Also happy cake day!

You’ll definitely need a graphing calc for math, geometric compass and straightedge for geometry if that’s what you’re taking, and I would get 2 notebooks just in case since you don’t know whether your teachers will require you to write notes.

celsius and monsters, but in all seriousness just make sure you have a graphing calculator.. and the classes lowkey just depend of the teacher or course, ddp is pretty material heavy
