In the news release, Georgia Power names 2017 New Teacher Assistance Grant recipients, issued 10-Jan-2018 by Georgia Power over PR Newswire, we are advised by the company that the Coastal Georgia section, last bullet, should read "Hayward Johnson, Swainsboro (Emanuel County Schools)" rather than ending with "Kevin Judy, Swainsboro (Emanuel County Schools)" as originally issued inadvertently. Likewise, the first four bullets of the Metro Atlanta section have been rearranged, and the bullet reading "Meria Carstarphen, Atlanta (Atlanta Public Schools)" has been omitted. The complete, corrected release follows:

"Georgia's students are our future workforce and are learning the skills they need to be successful every day in the classroom," said Anne Kaiser, vice president of community and economic development for Georgia Power. "Supporting high quality public education starts with supporting the educators on the front lines and the grants are one way that we can show new teachers that their work is appreciated."
