NORTH ATTLEBORO - Rather than wait a week to correct a misquoted statement in a local weekly newspaper, Superintendent Richard Smith took the unusual, but not unprecedented, step of alerting parents to the error with the school department's automated telephone system.

Smith said he decided to use the ConnectEd automated telephone system to correct the information because, "I believe the information presented was likely to cause undue concern among families. I also believe it was possible that the misquote could be perceived as an exaggeration about our budget concerns."

Smith was misquoted in The Free Press last week. An article in the weekly paraphrased a statement by Smith, and erroneously indicated that possible budget cuts could force the district to transfer students to schools out of town.
