“The new grading system had initially given Christel House a ‘C’ grade, because of the school’s poor test scores in algebra. ‘This will be a HUGE problem for us,’ Bennett wrote in a Sept. 12, 2012 email. At the urging of Bennett, the grading system was quickly altered so that Christel House ended up with an ‘A’ grade. Bennett told the Associated Press that he wasn’t trying to tilt the system in favor of Christel House because of DeHaan’s contributions. He said Christel House was a top-performing school and its ‘C’ grade indicated the grading system was flawed. Bennett is currently serving as Florida’s education commissioner.”
