Shawn earned a place in the first year of senior school at the Mobile Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. The family has few resources; the list costs $800, which is more than they have. Shawn loves mathematics and wants to become a nurse. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. He will take care of everything given and works very hard. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $800 goes: • Laptop: $360 • School uniform and shoes: $105 • Textbooks and workbooks: $210 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $125 Thanks for reading all this. - Landon
