District 205 to honor student with balloon launch tomorrow

A balloon launch at Steele Elementary School will be held tomorrow afternoon to honor a first grader who tragically choked to death last week.

Preliminary autopsy results show six-year-old Jaden Lester lost his life when his tonsils became inflamed, constricting his throat and breathing. 

District 205 will launch the balloons on the school’s front lawn at 2:30 p.m. 

Superintendent Ralph Grimm and Steel Principal Matt Lingafelter have referred to Lester as “Steele superstar.
