Another toddler wanders from School

If you think that lightning doesn't strike twice, well think again!  It makes you wonder what goes on in schools when such young children can slip out undetected.

This incident bears a striking resemblence to the one I previously posted.  In this case a five year old girl wandered, but at least the school did call Police who found the girl ten minutes later.

"Superintendent Paul Dakin said six adults were in charge of watching the children during recess but when they did their count of children, they came up one short.

The teachers were said to have contacted the principal about the missing child, who then called both Revere and State Police. A few minutes later, a state trooper found the girl on Ocean Avenue. She had apparently crossed a bridge over MBTA train tracks and avoided traffic. While the child appeared to be unharmed, an internal investigation into the incident is under way.

"

Originally, I thought that I would not bother with child tracking methods for normal school days, but now I'm having second thoughts!
