La Salle-Peru High School to offer counseling services for mourning students

La Salle-Peru High School is mourning the loss of a 16-year-old student who died Monday and the school is offering counseling services to students.

“We lost one of our own earlier this week,” Superintendent Steven Wrobleski said in a statement Wednesday to the La Salle-Peru High School community. “Kendra Thomas tragically died in an automobile accident.”

“We mourn with her family and offer our deepest condolences,” he said.

The L-P Counseling Department scheduled a group support session from 8 to 10 a.m. Thursday, June 20, in the school’s library for any student needing to talk to someone. No appointment is needed.

The visitation is 3 to 6 p.m. Sunday, June 23, at the Hurst Funeral Home, 103 E. Elm St., Tonica, with a Celebration of Life at 6 p.m.
