[originaltext] Virginia Brown is in the ninth grade at Ashley High School S

Virginia Brown is in the ninth grade at Ashley High School Since her first year in school, she has had perfect attendance and all her grades have been A’s. However, she got a C in cooking class and her heart was broken. She didn’t like it so much that her dad filed a complaint in federal court about it. He thinks that the teacher, who is white, discriminated against his daughter, who is black. (32)He seeks to have her grade changed from a C to an A and asks for unspecified financial damages.
     When Virginia got the C, she cried the whole weekend and wouldn’t come out of her room. The girl hasn’t been this upset since her cat got run over by a car when she was 6 years old.
     Virginia is a model student, and she’s the class president. (33) She’s on the swim team. the volleyball team, and the track team. She belongs to the chess club, and she is a member of the Girl Scouts and sings in her church choir.
    (34) The home economics teacher is 28-year-old Jessica Smith. This is her first year teaching. Ms Smith thought that discrimination was absolutely not the issue. Some of her best friends are African-Americans and that isn’t a black and white problem. And she is going to sue them for defamation of character and whatever else her lawyer comes up with.
    (35) The school principal, who grew up in India, said that he backed Ms Smith 100 percent. He thought that Virginia was an excellent student, who would have no problem getting into the best universities even with a C in cooking.
