FOR THE RECORD

A headline in Thursday's paper should have said a student who brought a gun to Blacksburg High School was expelled, not suspended. A reporter and an editor failed to make clear the difference between suspension and expulsion in the story. Also, the story incorrectly reported the length of the expulsion. The student will not be allowed to apply for readmission to Montgomery County schools until March.
