August 23, 2023 Dear Clayton Public School Families, Last night, Brenna Davis, a CHS 9th Grade student passed away from injuries sustained in an ATV accident. As a small community, any loss but especially that of a child is felt deeply and our hearts are heavy. While our community processes this news and copes with grief, counselors will be onsite today and tomorrow for all students and staff. All district wide events and activities have been canceled for today and tomorrow. Please continue to pray for Brenna’s family and friends.
