Full Circle Montessori School
870 S. Greenbrier Street
Arlington, VA 22204
(703) 243-8282

Current Inspector: Sarah Zirzow (703) 479-4675

Inspection Date: Nov. 2, 2023

Complaint Related: Yes

Areas Reviewed:
8VAC20-780 Physical Plant.
8VAC20-780 Staffing and Supervision.
8VAC20-780 Programs.
8VAC20-780 Special Care Provisions and Emergencies

Technical Assistance:
Consultation was given on requesting an Allowable Variance for using hand towels in the primary classrooms. Clarification was provided by the Center Director and classroom staff on handwashing with the pitcher of water as a Montessori activity separate from hand washing following using the restroom.

Comments:
An allegation was received by the Fairfax Licensing Office concerning physical plant, equipment and preventing the spread of disease. The allegation involved potty chairs used by the youngest in the Toddler classrooms, running water and sanitation of toilet chairs. Based on the preponderance of evidence with observation and staff interviews, the allegation of children not washing their hands properly or chairs not being emptied promptly or cleaned is unfounded. The sink between the 2 toddler bathrooms (which each contained a child sized toilet and 3 potty chairs) was missing disposable paper towels. Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance with applicable standards or law and a violation was documented on the violation notice issued to the program. Feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.
