Approved Calculators

● All scientific calculators are acceptable, all 4-function calculators, including those with square root and
percentage keys, are allowed (but not recommended), and most graphing calculators are acceptable as
long as they don’t have any of the features listed under Unacceptable Calculators.
● Check the list of acceptable graphing calculators on the next page for models that are permitted.
● Web-based calculators on the ALEKS or Gradarius course sites

Unacceptable Calculators

● Students are not allowed to use any of the following calculators, unless specifically approved by SAILS
as an accommodation:
○ Any graphing calculator that has CAS (Computer Algebra System) functionality
○ Calculator apps or programs on laptops or other computers, tablets, mobile phones,
smartphones, smartwatches, or wearable technology
○ Models that can access the Internet or have wireless, Bluetooth, cellular, audio/video recording
and playing, camera, or any other smartphone-type features
○ Models that have a computer-style (QWERTY) keyboard, pen input, or stylus
○ Models that use electrical outlets, make noise, or have a paper tape

● In addition, the use of hardware peripherals such as a stylus with an approved calculator is not
permitted. Some models with touchscreen capability are not permitted (e.g., Casio ClassPad). Check
the list of acceptable graphing calculators above for models that are permitted.

*If a calculator is approved for the SAT/ACT, that does NOT make it approved for this course. Please
refer to the standards on this document.
