25 | On December 6, 2023 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lea Habtom met with director Jestine Attaran for the purpose of a Case Management Incident inspection.
At 1:05 pm there was a census of 11 transitional kindergarten children being supervised by 6 staff and the director. Around 1:50 pm 4 staff picked up 12 kindergarten children.
An Unusual Incident Report was submitted to the office on November 15, 2023. LPA Habtom interviewed director Jestine Attaran regrading the incident. It was reported that on November 14, 2023 around 1:52 pm 51 children were outside in the playground being supervised by 5 staff. Staff were getting ready to transition back into the art room when the staff realized 4 children did not respond to their name during role call. Staff went into lock down and notified the Principal and Assistant principal. Two STAR staff members and the Principal, Assistant principal and office staff were searching for the children around campus. The four children walked to a nearby home of one of the children and they were safely returned to the campus by a family member. The children were away from the program for approximately 15 minutes. Based on the self reported unusual incident and an interview with the director, Jestine Attaran, a Type A deficiency was cited on 809-D. Civil penalty assessed.
The director stated a staff meeting was held during work hours that went over changes made to avoid future incidents such as staff placement's on the playground. The director stated the playground perimeter was reduced to allow more staff visibility and highlighter yellow caution barricades were purchased to use as a barrier closed off to children.
