School officials and counselors have been working closely with students and families to offer support during this heartbreaking time. “This is a devastating loss for our Mustang family,” said a spokesperson from Mustang Public Schools. “We extend our deepest condolences to the student’s loved ones.”
Friends and classmates describe the student as kind-hearted, driven, and full of life. Social media has been flooded with tributes, photos, and messages expressing sorrow and remembrance.
