"Ms. Wheeler was a well-known, dedicated team member at Africentric Alternative School who cared for all her students. During her time at our school, she developed strong relationships with students and staff, and will be remembered as an incredibly kind and giving person who was friends with everyone," the school's principal wrote in a letter to parents and guardians on Wednesday.

"The Africentric community will come together to show our respect and support for the family based on their wishes in the weeks ahead," the letter said.
