There is another missing girl in California.  I wasn't sure if I could start a new thread and at first I thought Watsonville might be close to Escondido.  Apparently they aren't.

No picture of her or details about the school? can't be that many schools in Watsonville, it is a pretty small place.

Noted .. National Center for Missing & Exploited Children just deleted this person as missing so my guess is that she was located..

I appreciate your interest in my area.. ..
I think it to be one of the most beautiful places on Earth..
Watsonville is located in the center of the Monterey bay and is an AG area..
I live in the mountains just behind it. All my kids have gone to these schools over the years..
We have a lot of field workers as it is an AG area which produces berries and flowers and lettuce.
 The Santa Cruz sentinel is running the story and so is the San Jose merc news..
But it appears she may have been located..
All the kids are getting out of school and one of mine was graduated from 8th grade today in watsonville. This girl does not appear to go to her school..
She probably goes to watsonville high school.

 Last O/T post from me but I'm so floored to meet someone on here from Watsonville! We lived there from 1976 til 2000, my son still lives in Santa Cruz. It's not very often I run into ppl. who even have heard of it.   Congrats to your graduating 8th grader, it's such a big deal for them.  Hope the missing girl is found soon.
