On 9/15/2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Hanson Leong, made an unannounced annual visit to the La Scuola International School facility. The LPA was granted entry by the Site Supervisor, Megan Reed. The LPA explained the purpose of the visit to the site supervisor. Guardian, the department's system for conducting background checks, has confirmed that all the individuals listed on the facility’s roster have been granted permission to work or be present in a childcare facility. The LPA observed eight teachers and two aides supervising sixty-one preschool children. Children's capacity and ratio requirements were observed to be in compliance,

LPA and the site supervisor both performed comprehensive inspections of the facility to look for possible threats to health and safety. The facility offers a first aid kit that is completely loaded with everything that is required for the treatment of wounds and other types of injuries. Toys, furnishings, and learning materials in all classes are age appropriate. The LPA made the observation that the playground equipment and outdoor furnishings are in very good shape. The outdoor play structures are surrounded by rubberized cushions, which can cushion any falls that may occur. Children have access to cots and resting mats for naps. The LPA noted that there were no bodies of water present at the facility. All poisons, cleaning products, and other potentially harmful substances have been stored in a location that is inaccessible to children. The building is equipped with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers that are properly charged, centralized smoke alarms, and phones that are in working order. The site supervisor has stated that the facility does not house any firearms or other types of weapons.

The LPA observed that the facility posted the required documents. (i.e., license, waivers, notification of parental rights, notification of personal rights, car seat law, emergency disaster plan, and daily activities).

The LPA reviewed the records of ten children. All required forms were in the children’s’ file. The program uses a electronic sign in / out sheet for authorized individuals to sign their children in and out. ***See Page 2 for continuation***
