“As adults, we recognize the significant emotional toll that follows the passing of a loved one or friend. Children who are experiencing the death of a loved one or friend for the first time may feel frightened or overwhelmed by the situation. They will likely seek your emotional support and guidance.

“To assist you in helping your child navigate this challenging time, we have included a list of resources. The emotional responses of your child may vary depending on their familiarity with this student or any previous experiences with loss. We encourage you to listen to your child and be ready to respond to their inquiries in a straightforward and honest manner.

“Counselors and additional support staff were present on campus today and will continue to be available for students, teachers, and parents.”

The condition and injuries of the second teenager have not been disclosed.
