Olympia Fields Board forms Ad Hoc Committee chair named
The Star corrects a Thursday story identifying Bonnie Danick as chair woman of Olympia Fields Ad Hoc Committee. Danick is a member of the Olympia Fields committee reviewing Rich Township High School District 227 redistricting, not the district’s Citizens Ad Hoc Committee. The Star apologizes for confusion and notes Danick did not claim 93 homes for sale in Olympia Fields were linked to District 227 problems.
