25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs), Cortney Nelson and Ashley Lopez, met with Site Director, Viviana Sedano, for temporary relocation of preschool program located at the facility. Due to road collapse behind Green Valley Christian School, the building has been red tagged and the preschool is relocating to Green Valley Christian Center, a church located on the property. The church will be closed to public use during the hours the school is in operation.
Building Inspector, Jose Perez, from City of Watsonville conducted inspection and confirmed that the church main building is approved for full use as the sewer line has been temporarily repaired. Viviana states that they are planning to resume use of the school this upcoming fall (August 2023) and will use the church for temporary use until then.

LPAs observed sufficient toys and materials for the children that are age-appropriate and in good condition. Viviana states that the rooms will be shared with the church on Sundays, however will be exclusively used by the preschoolers Monday-Friday. Children in grades K-8th are also utilizing the church and will be sharing the restrooms. LPAs advised Viviana to submit a waiver request for shared use of the bathrooms during the school day.
