The grades of a teacher who participated in a selection process, in which the evaluation panel was composed of five members, are presented in the graph. It is known that each panel member assigned two grades to the teacher, one relating to specific knowledge in their area of work and another relating to pedagogical knowledge, and that the teacher's final grade was given by the arithmetic mean of all grades assigned by the evaluation panel. Using a new criterion, this evaluation panel decided to discard the highest and lowest grades assigned to the teacher. The new average, in relation to the previous average, is (A) 0.25 point higher. (B) 1.00 point higher. (C) 1.00 point lower. (D) 1.25 points higher. (E) 2.00 points lower.
