Liliana earned a place in Grade 9 at Vigo Technical College, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things She needs, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $700, which is more than they have. Liliana loves robotics and wants to become an engineer. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. She will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $700 goes: • Laptop: $370 • School uniform and shoes: $85 • Textbooks and workbooks: $190 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $55 If you're reading this, thank you.
