A correction has been made to the Results section, paragraph one. In the published article, there was a mistake in the statement of the percentage of students by gender in the Results section. The percentage was displayed as “Amongst 783 students, 54.5% were girls, 61.0% were in junior grade level.” The correct statement is “Amongst 783 students, 54.5% were boys, 61.0% were in junior grade level.”.
