News in brief Clarifications
The information submitted to us for our front page photograph about Haslett High School’s play, Wizard of Oz, was incorrect. The person identified as Matt Sauer, playing the part of the Tin man, was actually Aaron Petrovich. Information submitted by the College Board’s Advanced Placement Program for honorees from Haslett omitted Nathan Riley who qualified for the AP Scholar Award by completing three or more AP Exams with grades of 3 or higher. Riley is a member of the Class of 2011.
