It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the death of Beverly Herrington, beloved wife of Dr. Steve Herrington. Beverly passed early morning on November 13, 2017, after a hard-fought battle with cancer.

Dr. Herrington's schedule is being adjusted as necessary to spend time with family. 

In lieu of flowers, the family recommends donations in Beverly's memory to the cancer or breast cancer organization of your choice. The following foundations are unrelated to Beverly's treatment, but do support breast cancer awareness and research:

Information on services is pending and will be made available according to the family's wishes.

"I like Amarosa because there's a much smaller student count and so teachers can be one-on-one with you. They can actually help you and be one-on-one with you while the class is doing something else. I feel like that's a huge game-changer." - Leilan, Student
