Authorities have not released the cause of death. Sgt. Juan Valencia, a sheriff's spokesperson, said investigators are awaiting the coroner's report and that preliminary information suggests it may have been medical in nature. School officials have not disclosed details about the activity but said they are cooperating with the Sheriff's Office."
"In a Facebook post, the school said classes and activities were canceled through the weekend to allow students and staff time to grieve.
