Tobias said he was disappointed in the students' response. He said they were moved to another room to exchange feelings.

"I am not sure what the most perfect solution would have been for today," Tobias' letter said.

"However, the high school now has much to reflect on for the next few days. I am expecting my teachers to be challenged with some questions from students regarding today. I have informed my faculty that if they are comfortable please do their best to respond, letting students know that open communication is the best course of action. There is a right and wrong way to solve a problem. A sit-in/open protest is not the right way.

"What may have been lost is not the memory of a young man, or the emotions of our students, but the fact that the death was a suicide, and some students in an effort to preserve the memory of this young man are taking steps that other students could interpret as suicide glorification."

Tobias also acknowledged the second suicide, which occurred Wednesday, in his letter, saying:

"It is with sadness that I inform you that on Wednesday evening, April 2, we have experienced a student death due to suicide. Faculty will be arriving on campus early Thursday morning to prepare grieving and crisis management procedures in order to help our students and staff who might be suffering. We will have a counseling and grieving center set up in the library and LGI room."
