A laptop for Kyle to study for his college math exam and meet with his tutor

Posted Nov 18, 2024
Kyle is on the brink of graduating from high school, and his excitement is palpable as he prepares for this significant milestone. However, he faces a pressing challenge that could hinder his path to graduation: passing the standardized state Math test. Math has always been a tough subject for Kyle, and despite his best efforts, he finds himself struggling to grasp the concepts necessary to succeed on the exam. To overcome this hurdle, Kyle knows that he would greatly benefit from working with a math tutor. After some research, we discovered several remote tutors who specialize in helping students prepare for standardized tests. These online sessions promise personalized attention and tailored strategies to improve his mathematical skills, but there is one critical issue: Kyle currently does not own a laptop. Having access to a reliable laptop is essential for him to connect with his tutor, participate in lessons, and access study materials for the College Readiness Test (CLT). With a laptop, Kyle could not only prepare for the math test but also reinforce his learning through various online resources and tools designed to support students in their studies.

Kyle is 19 years old and lives in FL

Kyle is in the extended foster care program and has just moved into a shared apartment with some other aged-out youth. Despite the challenges he's faced, Kyle remains hopeful and optimistic. Kyle's journey in foster care began when he was just 14 years old. His aunt was no longer able to care for him, and unfortunately, his parents have never been a part of his life. He spent the rest of his teenage years in a group home until he turned 18. Now, he's excited to be living with other foster youth who understand what he's been through. When he's not studying or working, Kyle loves to stay active by playing basketball, football, and boxing. He also enjoys staying connected with friends via Facetime and unwinding with some video games. Despite the challenges he's faced, Kyle's positive attitude and love for life are truly inspiring!
