It is with a heavy heart and our most solemn condolences to have to announce that this morning, Mrs. Jody McCracken passed away. 

In losing Jody, we’ve lost one of the most caring and selfless individuals who has touched the lives of so many students, family, and friends. When tragedy happens to good people, we begin to question why. None of us have the answer to that question, so in order to cope with our loss, we have to trust in our faith and in the fond memories of Mrs. McCracken. Her wish is to have a celebration of her life. So as we grieve, let’s remember the joy and assistance that Mrs. McCracken provided to so many students and staff alike. Let’s celebrate the life of Mrs. McCracken and remember her smile, positive attitude, and giving spirit. We also have to work together, as she would want us to, and find understanding and compassion within our souls to help each other through this terrible situation. 

We have multiple counselors here at the Jr/Sr High School available, as well as others if you need some to talk to. They will be available until 4 pm today and all day tomorrow.

Sincerely,

Sean Kirkland, Superintendent
