According to the Sheriff’s Office, 16-year-old Dreama Ann Rogers-McKenney, who goes by “Dre,” was last seen leaving Middletown High School on May 21, 2026, at approximately 1:30 p.m., before lunch had ended.

Dreama is described as approximately 5-foot-3 inches tall, weighing about 140 pounds, with brown hair. Authorities noted that their hair is currently brown and not red as shown in the attached photo released by law enforcement.

They were last seen wearing black or dark gray sweatpants, a white hoodie, black shoes — possibly Converse or Vans — and a red hat with a large logo. Dreama was also carrying a black backpack.

Investigators said information received indicates Dreama may be traveling toward the Cobb area and could possibly be traveling by bus to either Sacramento or Santa Rosa.

The Sheriff’s Office said Dreama is considered at risk due to concerns for their health.
