CHARLESTON COUNTY, S.C. (WCBD) – A group of students gathered outside R.B. Stall High School on Monday morning to mourn the death of a fellow student. Stall High School Principal Steve Larson said in a message to the school community that the student had suffered a “major medical crisis” on Friday and was taken to a local hospital for immediate care. The student did not survive. “I know this news is really hard to hear. [The student] had a joy for life, his friends, and the unique ability to put a smile on anyone’s face. He will be remembered as a wonderful human being,” Larson said in his message. He added that additional support services would be available to anyone on campus who needed it. A group of students gathered outside the high school Monday morning to “show their love and respect and express their grief,” the Charleston County School District told News 2.
