On September 21, 2022 at 8:15 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elimika Woods met with licensee Victoria Popejoy for an Unannounced complaint investigation to deliver the finding of a compliant investigation. There was one (1) preschool age child present and fingerprint cleared assisant, I. Yanez. LPA Woods conducted interviews and collected documentation. Based on interviews conducted there was not enough evidence to prove that the staff was or was not spanking children at the facility. This agency has investigated the complaint.

Based on interviews conducted and observations, it cannot be proven or disproven that the staff was spanking children. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
