Middle school dealing with overdose death

February 12, 2010 By WRN Contributor

Staff members at a southern Wisconsin middle school are still reeling from the effects of an overdose death of a student this week. Edgerton Middle School Principal Jerry Roth says they are working to track rumors involving 13-year-old Alex Aiken who was found dead by his mother of a reported oxycontin overdose Tuesday morning. A friend of Aiken, also 13, was hospitalized for an apparent overdose that morning as well.

School staff members will be talking to students in small groups next week.

Meanwhile the school will also continue its plans for a Winter Olympics themed competition. “I hope it’s an event that brings our school back together under a positive note,” says Roth.

The games will culminate with an event at Cascade Mountain in a couple of weeks.
