When she did attend school though, she passed all of her classes with flying colors. Everyone constantly hounded her to attend school more frequently, but she didn't believe she had to, since she got great grades. When it was time for graduation, Sam was very elated. Unfortunately, to her dismay, her attendance, like a ball and chain, kept her from achieving her goals. Please do not be like Sam! Follow the rules.
