Héctor earned a place in Year 10 at the Monterrey Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $300, which is more than they have. Héctor loves robotics and wants to become a pilot. 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 $300 goes: • Laptop: $230 • Textbooks and workbooks: $60 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $10 I hope life is good to you.
