PORTLAND, OREGON (AP) -- Portland's school superintendent says crisis counselors will be at an elementary school today where a 7-year-old Oregon boy disappeared.

Investigators trying to find the boy have interviewed nearly 200 of his classmates and their parents and the FBI sent a team to take part in the expanding search.

Kyron Horman disappeared sometime after his stepmother left him at his Portland elementary school on Friday morning.

Sheriff Dan Staton said late last night that he was "not prepared" to call the boy's disappearance a kidnapping.

He says in a statement that there's a lot of information that must be thoroughly processed.

The boy and his stepmother attended a science fair at the school early Friday, and she last saw him walking down a hallway toward his second grade classroom at about 8:45 a.m.
