The Brighouse High School student’s body was then found on land off Beechwood Park, Brighouse, just two days later on Wednesday.
Logan’s school said his death had left the school and wider community “deeply upset”.
Richard Horsfield, headteacher at Brighouse High where Logan was a pupil, said the teenager was a valued member of the school community, who had a wide circle of friends and good relationships with staff.
He said: “It was a particular pleasure to see his love and enthusiasm for PE, especially within rugby, grow in the years he spent with us.
“We will continue to think of his family and all of his friends at this very sad time and will do all we can as a close knit school to support them.
“We are grateful for the time we spent with him and deeply saddened that the time came to such an abrupt end.”
Mr Horsfield added that specialist support would be available to students.
