I earned a place in Grade 9 at Tacoma International School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the chemistry course, and a uniform.
My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $750, which is more than we have.
I love chemistry and want to become a pilot. 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 $750 goes:
• Textbooks and workbooks: $250
• Laptop: $460
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $40
I hope life is good to you.
