To our Lighthouse Family,
It is with profound sadness that we share and acknowledge the untimely passing of Mr. Craig Jones, Special Education Teacher and basketball coach for our East Chicago Lighthouse Charter School. We extend our deepest condolences to the family and the entire Northwest Indiana school community as they grieve this loss. Mr. Jones was an amazing spirit and valued team member that was committed to the work of helping scholars both in and out of the classroom. His contagious tone of positivity and laughter was infectious if ever you had a chance to meet him. Mr. Jones’ influence went beyond the classroom and onto the basketball court where he mentored and supported our scholars beyond just academics which is the mission of who we are as a community. We are forever grateful for the time we had with him and will miss him greatly. Grief and Support counselors have been available for all staff and scholars that are in need of
additional support during this time.
Our Sincere Sympathy,
Jessica Beasley
Executive Director
