I earned a place in Form 4 at Los Angeles Science Academy, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the biology course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $500, which is more than we have.
I love biology and want to become an engineer. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard.
Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag.
Where the $500 goes:
• Textbooks and workbooks: $270
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $45
• School uniform and shoes: $185

you're not alone, Claire. Your post was clear and honest.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Claire.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. textbooks and workbooks is the biggest at $270. It helps to be asked.
Stay strong. Study hard! Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings
thinking of you, Claire. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Hope you get there. After 15 years in public service I know how hard it is to ask for anything
