refused to read a final book assigned by a teacher.
She’d read it once and didn’t want to read it again.

The Mansfield News Journal reports that the Mount Vernon Board of Education approved issuing Williams’ diploma earlier this month. A retired English teacher had approached the board about giving Williams the diploma after reading about her earlier this year.

Williams was a longtime cook at what is now the state’s only working farm and park, called Malabar Farm State Park.
She still has a sharp mind and lives with her daughter. – Press Trust of India.
