Marco's school year: uniform, books and a laptop

Marco earned a place in Grade 9 at Messina Science Academy, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the graphic design course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $500, which is more than they have. Marco loves graphic design and wants to become a teacher. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He will take care of everything given and works very hard. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $500 goes: • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $40 • School uniform and shoes: $160 • Laptop: $300 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Sofia
