PORTLAND – Skyline Elementary School in Portland started the new school year Tuesday with extra security and many changes, following the disappearance of Kyron Horman at the end of the last school year.
Teachers and staff will now take a head-count of students several times a day and parents will be notified through an automated system if their child isn’t in class.
In addition, visitors will be required to wear color-coded badges inside the school, as well as volunteers.
The other big change – security cameras will keep an eye on virtually the entire school grounds. The security system was donated by a local business.
Kyron disappeared on June 4, after attending a science fair at the school with his step-mom, Terri Moulton Horman.
