Frequently Asked Questions for Parents

1. How can I get in touch with you?

• Email: emcox@greenville.k12.sc.us

  • I am very responsive to emails and should respond within 24 hours

• Phone: 864-355-2830

2. How will you be informing parents/guardians of upcoming tests, quizzes, projects, etc.?

1. • I use email quite a bit to keep parents updated and in the loop. I also will use the Parent BackPack to keep you updated about your student's progress in my class.

3. Should I buy my student a calculator for chemistry?

• For chemistry, you will most likely need a scientific calculator. I have a classroom set of calculators for students to use that are disinfected at the end of every class

  • My calculators are Texas Instruments TI30XIIS Scientific Calculator - Black

  • If you do not feel comfortable using a shared calculator, you can purchase one for your student at the link above. I got mine from Target and Walmart for about 10-12 dollars each.

4. When are you available for extra help?

• I do the tutoring program in the morning from 7:30 am to 8:30 am. Your student can go to the elevator and talk to the lady standing there and come up to my room for tutoring.
