ESCANABA The Daily Press is embarrassed that the Student of the Week submission for Mid Peninsula School was published the Saturday, Feb. 27 issue of the paper.
The article about Mid Peninsula student Cody Pepin was allegedly written and submitted by a Mid Peninsula teacher. The teacher has been writing and submitting Student of the Week profiles to the paper for many years./
The Daily Press is saddened that a positive part of the paper that seeks to honor area students was used by a teacher to submit a mean and nasty attack on a student.
Most of all, the Daily Press wishes to apologize to Cody Pepin and his family for this incident and that the article fell through the cracks here at the Daily Press.
