Thank God, he knew my phone number," said Cheryl Thompson.

She says once at the school, she viewed security footage that showed Jordan jumping a 6-foot fence to get off of the school property. The school says Jordan made it apparent he wanted to leave school and once his teacher realized he was gone, she called a "code red", which would alert administration. Thompson says she thinks her son was confused, and thinks he should never have been able to get off school property alone.
