Through ongoing communication with Carissa’s parents, and in honoring their wishes for their daughter, the Johnson County School District asks our entire community to unite in support of her family.

We invite all students, staff, and community members to wear pink on Monday, August 17. Pink was Carissa’s favorite color, and wearing it together will serve as a symbol of our shared love, unity, and support.

Per her parents' wishes, all district schools—including Johnson County Middle School—will be in session on Monday. District flags will fly at half-staff in Carissa’s honor, and counselors and school psychologists will continue to be available in our schools to support our students and staff.

Please continue to keep Carissa’s family, friends, and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this heartbreaking time.
