Our Carrboro Elementary School community is heartbroken to learn of the passing of 5th grader Donavan O'Dwyer-Slay.

The families of Donavan's classmates are collecting funds to help with the stress and financial burdens Donavan's family will face as they grieve. Though no donation will take away the pain, any amount will be appreciated and go directly to the family.

Please keep Donavan, his family, loved ones, friends and classmates in your thoughts during this incredibly sad time.
