I earned a place in Year 10 at Rio de Janeiro Boys' High School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the coding course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $300, which is more than we have. I love coding and want to become a software developer. 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. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $300 goes: โ€ข Laptop: $175 โ€ข School uniform and shoes: $35 โ€ข Textbooks and workbooks: $80 โ€ข Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10 If you're reading this, thank you.
