An unannounced complaint investigation was conducted on 4/15/2024 from 7:40am-9:15am in response to complaints received on 4/8/2024 and 4/12/2024. The complainants stated that classrooms frequently run over the maximum allowable ratios most mornings and on the morning of 4/8/2024 one of the staff member was supervising 10 children (2 children over the maximum allowable supervision guidelines) when a child was injured and required outside medical care.
The investigation included a review of incident reports, 3 staff records, 1 child's record, and interviews with multiple staff, the management team, and the owners. A preponderance of the evidence supports the claims made by the complainants, and the complaint is deemed to be valid.
