It is with deep regret that we share the passing of Ms. Lisa Foulk, our resident secretary at Opequon Elementary. Lisa greeted students with a friendly face each day and knew every single student. She was the go-to lady for all things finance, her laughter was contagious, and her ability to make the office smell like a bakery with Scentsy was unmatched! Her loss has been deeply felt across our school community. The Berkeley County Schools Crisis Team was onsite throughout last week, and our school counselors continue to be available to help any student who may need support or guidance as they process this loss. Additionally, the district partners with the Cook Center for Human Connection and their Mental Health and Wellness Resource Center: ParentGuidance.org. They offer parent coaching, on-demand courses, and other resources that may be useful to you in helping your student at home.
We are saddened by this loss and remain committed to supporting our students and staff. Please do not hesitate to reach out if we can assist in any way. Our school community and PTO are working collaboratively on ways to honor and commemorate the life of Mrs. Lisa Foulk. More information will be shared in the future.
