Error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot read the array length because "scores" is null

The file provides information of students in a course, their id #, names, and grades. However, I have to create a new student who isnt apart of the Course.txt file. And when creating an student object i received errors. and when using the deleteStudent method it does not display "Delete student 666-66-6666. Number of students in the course: " (theres nothing wrong with the deleteStudent method)
