*Correction: Toledo School District Bond Information Night Press Release posted in Thursday Column incorrectly listed “...Toledo School District Superintendent Chris Rust and Board Members Monique Norberg, Tom Lahmann, Bill Moore, and Denny Clark to help answer questions…”
Yesterday’s Press Release actually reads “...Toledo School District Superintendent Chris Rust and Board Member Monique Norberg, Tom Lahmann, Bill Moore, and Denny Clark to help answer questions…”
Superintendent Chris Rust pointed out: Monique Norberg is the only board member on the panel. The others are community members who participated on the Facilities Advisory Committee.
The Other Toledo apologizes for the error and thanks Supt. Rust for setting the record straight.
