Sydney Ledoux Car Accident – Obituary: New London school employee identified as victim in fatal Hebron car accident.
According to state police, a single-car collision on Route 85 early on Sunday morning claimed the life of a 23-year-old Bolton woman.
Sydney Ledoux struck a mailbox and a tree when for an “unknown reason” she entered the southbound lane while driving north, according to state police. According to police, the collision occurred just north of East Street at around two in the morning.
Ledoux was the only person inside the car, according to state police. She was taken to Windham Hospital, according to the police, but she passed away from her wounds.
Superintendent of New London Public Schools Cynthia Ritchie announced in a letter to the community that Ledoux was a speech-language pathology assistant for the entire district. She added that Sunday morning, the district was notified of her passing.
Ledoux had been working at the Bennie Dover Jackson Multi-Magnet Middle School Campus, the New London High School Multi-Magnet Campus, Winthrop STEM Elementary Magnet School and the Early Childhood Center at B.P. Mission. She said she was working while pursuing her college degree.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, friends, students, and colleagues of Ms. Ledoux,” Ritchie said in a statement. “New London Public Schools is home to Crisis Intervention Teams, made up of professionals trained to help with the needs of all, during difficult times such as this. Counselors and additional members of our district’s Mental Health Team are available for any students or staff who may need support surrounding this heart-breaking loss.”
