She is a very intelligent and sweet young lady, that in spite of what life has thrown at her, she still has a positive attitude and smile.--Mrs. George 
 
Sam shows exemplary follow-through, not only with her grades, but with her conceptual understanding. She is a disciplined learner who will achieve great results. I'm excited for her future!--Mrs. Wright.
