B Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence requires the present perfect continuous tense because it describes an action that started in the past (June 1997) and continues to the present. 'Had been attending' is the correct form. The subject 'She' requires the auxiliary verb 'had' (not has). The structure is: had been + present participle (attending). Since June 1997 indicates the action began in the past and continues.
