Cindy,
I do understand from some other peers here in our city, that this gentleman
has had previous difficulties with orientation and mobility.  It may indeed
take a trained eye to at least assess the situation though, and with none of
us being qualified, the default may indeed be the school, or at least to
make them aware.

I am thinking that short of calling his school then what could you do? I
probably wouldn't do anything, though maybe that's the wrong approach.
