Mom hacks computer to change kids grades

A PENNSYLVANIA mother went to great lengths to see her children succeed when she logged into a school district’s computer system to change their grades, state police and school officials say. Catherine Venusto, 45, admitted to using password information obtained while employed as a secretary for the Northwestern Lehigh School District to log onto the computer system on multiple occasions, according to authorities. Using district superintendent Dr. Mary Anne Wright’s sign-on and password, she changed a failing grade for her daughter to a medical exception in 2010 and bumped up a grade of 98 to a 99 for her son in February, authorities said. She also used Wright’s information gain access to emails and personnel files, assistant superintendent Jennifer Holman told NBC News. –msnbc
