A crisis support team will be available for students and teachers at the Midland district's three schools this week.

Wrenn's visitation is set for Wednesday from 4-7 p.m. in Wood River, near St. Louis. The district will dismiss all classes at 1 p.m. to allow employees and students to pay respects. Pre-K classes will also be canceled Wednesday.

Wrenn had a wife and two children.
