I earned a place in the first year of senior school at the Los Angeles Selective School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $1,300, which is more than we have.
I love robotics and want to become a nurse. 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 $1,300 goes:
• Laptop: $700
• School uniform and shoes: $210
• Textbooks and workbooks: $310
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $80
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
