Lincoln Elementary School offering counseling services over the deaths of three students

WENTACHEE, Wash. — The Wenatchee School District says three missing sisters found dead this week were students at Lincoln Elementary School.

Paityn, Olivia, and Evelyn Decker were found dead at a campground west of Leavenworth having been reported missing during a visitation with their father.

The Wenatchee School District says it will provide comprehensive support to students, staff, and families during this time.

The district says counseling services are available at the Lincoln campus for students and staff.

A guide is also available for families on how to talk to their children about loss. The guide is available here in ENGLISH and SPANISH.

The district also thanks the community for its compassion but asks people to not come to the campus outside of regular school business.
