When Susan White went back to high school a couple of years ago, she never had any thought about actually getting a high school diploma(文凭).
“I just wanted to learn more,”she said. But when she found out that many of her classmates were planning to graduate, Mrs White recalled(回忆),“I said my young friends can graduate from high school, so can I.”

Now that she is about to get a diploma, Mrs White has become a strong believer in getting a good education.
