An article in the Dec. 3, 2008, issue of Education Week about the Brownsville Independent School District should have said that in 2006 the Texas district failed to make adequate yearly progress in reading for special education students. It made all other AYP goals that year.

A story in the Dec. 10, 2008, issue about outdoor education incorrectly reported the funding sources for the Boston Schoolyard initiative. It receives financing from the city of Boston and a collaborative of private funders.

A version of this article appeared in the January 07, 2009 edition of Education Week
