Grief counselors were at the school Wednesday, and will be back to help students again on Monday. According to school officials, a GoFundMe page that was created after the students' death purporting to be raising money for funeral services was reported as fraudulent. O'Donnell was a two-time state diving champion. She helped Concord-Carlisle High School win its third straight MIAA title earlier this year and planned to dive for Williams College in the fall.

Spring Break tragedy as three high school seniors killed in devastating car crash
A horrendous car crash in Florida has left three high school students dead and one in critical condition, after their car collided with a tractor-trailer. Two of the Massachusetts high school seniors, Jimmy McIntosh and Hannah Wasserman, were killed instantly and pronounced dead at the scene, while Maisey O'Donnell was later declared dead in hospital after doctors failed to save her life. All four Concord-Carlisle High School students were 18 years of age. The high schoolers were driving down Highway 98 near Panama City, Fla., when their SUV collided with a tractor-trailer that was performing a U-turn at roughly 9:28 p.m. on Monday night, reports say.

The SUV was thrown over the median and into a wooded area on the opposite side of the highway, Florida Highway Patrol said. The fourth student, who was not identified, remains in critical condition at Bay Medical Center, according to NBC Boston. The car was being driven by Jimmy McIntosh, of Carlisle, Mass., who was confirmed to have been wearing a seatbelt when it crashed. It is not yet clear whether Wasserman and O'Donnell, of Concord, and the unidentified student were wearing seatbelts during the collision and investigators are still looking into it. WCVB confirmed the 19-year-old driver and passenger of the tractor-trailer vehicle involved in the collision managed to come out uninjured. Laurie Hunter, Concord-Carlisle Regional School District Superintendent, confirmed Tuesday that McIntosh, Wasserman, and O'Donnell were all killed in the crash. In a statement, Hunter said, 'We are very appreciative of the outpouring of love during what is absolutely heartbreaking. 'We also appreciate the wish to feel purposeful and not helpless. At this time, it is most appropriate that no action be taken to honor the students without the full consent of the families and appropriate support for so many young people facing unfathomable loss.' One of the victims of the crash, Maisey O'Donnell was a two-time Massachusetts state diving champion and was one of the top divers in the US. Her coach Joe Chirico told WCVB she was a role model to younger athletes. He said, 'It's a tragedy. The little kids looked up to her, the other divers looked up to her. 'It's a tragedy, that somebody at the top of their game, going to the best academic school, one of the best divers in the nation, was cut so short.' O'Donnell had won MVP, 1st Team All-State, 1st Team All-Area, 1st Team All-Region, 1st Team All-County, and 1st Team All-Conference while on the Concord Carlisle High School team in 2023, according to NCSA Sports. Hannah Wasserman's loved ones described her as a 'bright light taken far too soon'. A GoFundMe has since been set up to help her parents pay funeral and memorial costs. 'Hannah was truly one of a kind: warm-hearted, kind, and always looking out for others. She had a way of making everyone feel seen, heard, and loved. 'Whether it was a friend in need, a classmate having a rough day, or a stranger who needed a smile, Hannah showed up with compassion and care,' wrote organizer Rex Riessen. The Florida Highway Patrol has said the collision is still under investigation.
