Serenity, a resident of the Black Hills Children's Home (BHCH), a treatment center for children with emotional and behavioral problems, was last seen on February 3, 2019, at 10:45 a.m. while playing in the gym with three other children. Two staff members were present, and when one child ran out of the gym, one staff member followed. Unfortunately, Serenity also ran out of the gym, and the remaining staff member stayed behind to watch the other children. The last known sighting of Serenity was at 11:00 a.m. when she was seen walking northbound on south Rockerville Road near the home. Despite the freezing temperatures, she was not wearing a coat. Serenity has not been heard from since. Serenity had a tumultuous early childhood, moving through multiple foster homes after being removed from her biological parents' care as a toddler. Both of her birth parents are currently incarcerated. Chad and KaSandra Dennard then took over her care in May of that year. Serenity's parents have noted that she experienced trauma from her early childhood, leading to frequent runaway attempts and other behavioral issues
