A military academy that Donald Trump attended as a teenager concealed his academic records in 2011 in response to pressure from Trump allies, The Washington Post reported Tuesday.
School records for the president became an issue after candidate Trump challenged then president Barack Obama to release his own academic records, with Trump saying he was surprised such a ‘terrible student’ got into Ivy League.
Subsequently his old school, The New York Military Academy came under such pressure to make public his school records.
Evan Jones, the headmaster of the military academy at the time, told the Post that the superintendent of the private school ‘came to me in a panic because he had been accosted by prominent, wealthy alumni of the school who were Mr. Trump’s friends’ and wanted to keep his academic records secret.

Trump’s former personal lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, told Congress last week that Trump ordered him to get his grades sealed; Cohen is pictured today arriving for a closed-door meeting with House Intelligence Committee members.
The school’s superintendent, or director, at the time, Jeffrey Coverdale, told the paper that he rejected a request from members of the school’s board of trustees to hand over Trump’s records to them.
‘I moved them elsewhere on campus where they could not be released. It´s the only time I eves records,’ Coverdale said.

Wealthy alumni of the 126-year-old New York Military Academy ‘pressured’ the school’s administration into hiding Trump’s school records during the 2016 presidential campaign

Last week Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, testified to a congressional committee last week that one of his jobs was to threaten lawsuits against the schools that Trump attended so they would never release his grades.
Jones said he did not know if the original request to obtain Trump’s records at the military academy came from Cohen.
Jones said he found the records in a filing cabinet in the basement of a building on the campus, which is about an hour’s drive north of New York City.
‘I don´t know if we should be doing this,’ Jones recalled telling his boss.
‘He told me that several wealthy alumni, including a close friend of Mr. Trump, were putting a lot of pressure on the administration to put the record in their custody for safekeeping.’
