Just found the answer to my question. The school confirmed yesterday that they did not contact the parent when Trevyan failed to show up for school. That's a big failure on their part.
Trevyan Rowe, the 14-year-old youth with autism who walked away from his Rochester school Thursday morning, had a full 10 hours before anyone noticed he was gone.
It is not clear if school officials noticed he was not present.
But the school did not notify the boy's mother, Carrie Houston, as they should have, Rochester City School District officials said Sunday. They are still reviewing how that happened.
It was not until Trevyan failed to arrive on the bus that normally brings him home in late afternoon that his family realized something was wrong, both Rosner and district spokesman Carlos Garcia said Sunday.
Houston called the school demanding an explanation. When school officials realized something was amiss, both administrators and the mother called Rochester police to report him missing.
