Why is Amanda angry at the beginning of Scene II? What does she tear up?

Amanda stopped at Rubicam's Business College, where Laura has supposedly been taking lessons, to tell the teachers that Laura has a cold and to ask about Laura's progress. Amanda discovered that Laura has not been going to class everyday, but instead dropped out of the school after only a few days of attendance. Amanda rips up a diagram of the typewriter keyboard.
