On Thursday, May 23, 2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stephanie Piring met with Facility Representative (Director) Brittany Ackerson, for the purpose of a complaint investigation and to deliver findings. LPA observed 23 School Age children being supervised by 3 staff on the playground. It was alleged that staff are not qualified, and staff are commingling day care children. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA conducted interviews, reviewed relevant documents, and made observations. During file review, LPA observed that all teachers were fully qualified. LPA did not observe commingling to occur during observation. Staff, Children and Authorized Representative Interviews did not reveal instances of commingling. The center has a commingling waiver for school age and preschool age children on file for the first and last hour of the day. Although the alleged violations may have happened or are valid, the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met, therefore, the allegation is unsubstantiated. Exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with Facility Representative Brittany Ackerson. Appeal rights were provided. Notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.
