This tele- inspection was conducted with Bailey Tripp, Director. Licensee is requesting to add two additional classroom space on the campus property due to COVID-19 ratio guidelines.
At 10:30 AM Director guided this LPA on a tour of the kindergarten classrooms.

LPA observed the tables and chairs arranged to comply with social distancing guidelines. LPA observed cots and water available inside the classroom via water cooler.
A Fire Clearance was requested and approved by LA County Fire Department to utilize the (2) kindergarten rooms during COVID-19 in order to follow social distancing guidelines. LPA observed each classroom to have its own separate entrance. Per Director, the children will use the (2) restrooms located next to the classrooms and each classroom will be designated their own restroom. The facility is not increasing their capacity and will continue to operate within capacity limits and conditions. Based on the documents submitted and the inspection on this date, the facility is in compliance and requested spaces can be used temporarily.

This report along with a copy of the appeal rights will be sent to the director via email with a read receipt which will act as the Applicants/Licensee’s signature.
