The following message is from City School District of Albany Superintendent Joseph Hochreiter:
Our school community was heartbroken yet again Tuesday to learn that the second North Albany Middle School student involved in Saturday's tragic accident in Washington Park has died. Our hearts go out to the family of this student, who gave their life trying to save their friend. We will remember that selfless courage even as we mourn another unimaginable loss.
We will continue to have crisis support services available for our students and employees at North Albany, and at the elementary schools these two students attended before moving up to middle school.
For anyone who would like to access additional resources, please read this message from North Albany Principal Andrea Piper.
