25 | On August 19, 2022, Program Analyst (LPA) Van performed an unannounced mandated annual inspection and met with the Director, Patricia Cerutti, and Area Manager, Kelly McGrath. The purpose of the inspection was explained to the Director. This facility is a school-aged after-school program in the Vallecito Elementary School in the City of San Rafael. The school approved the Center to use classrooms #36 and #42, the gym, and the two boys' and girls' bathrooms. The days and hours of operations are Monday to Friday, and the morning program is from 11:30 am to 6:00. At 11:55 am, five children arrive in the classroom. By the time the inspection was completed, the total number of children was 20.
The Director and LPA inspected the facility for potential health and safety hazards. All classrooms have age-appropriate games, books, and equipment in good repair. Classrooms have acceptable ventilation and ample lighting. There are cubbies available for children belonging. The facility has a smoke detector, a fully charged fire extinguisher, and carbon monoxide. There are no pools, spas, or other bodies of water at the facility. All cleaning solutions, poisons, and other dangerous chemicals are stored in an area inaccessible to children. LPA reminded the Director all unused electrical outlets need covers. All the bathrooms, toilets, and sinks are clean and well sanitized. All solid waste bins have a suitable tight-fitted lid on top, and the facility has a water fountain in the classroom readily available for children. The outdoor playground area is in good repair. The play structure is age-appropriate and in good condition, with sufficient cushioning underneath.
