On Tuesday, August 27, 2024, at 10:10 a.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Mayra Rivera conducted an unannounced complaint inspection regarding personal rights.

During LPA Rivera arrival, the children were outside playing. LPA observed 22 preschool children playing in the playground with staff #1, staff #2, staff #3 and staff #4 providing care and supervision.
During the course of this investigation, Licensing Program Analyst Mayra Rivera observed the children, conducted confidential interviews with parents, children, staff, and reviewed documentation. All parents stated that they have no concerns with the quality of care provided at Foothill Learning Center. All children stated they like coming to school because they like to play with their friends.

On this date 8/27/24, LPA observed outdoor play for 45 minutes and LPA did not observe children biting or hitting.

Documentation has no indication of personal rights behaviors between children in care.

LPA Rivera observations, documentation and interviews conducted did not support nor confirm the above allegation. This agency has investigated the complaint. At this time, it is determined that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, therefore at this time the above allegation is unsubstantiated. No deficiency given at this time.

Exit interview was conducted with director Daniel Herrarte. The director was provided a copy of the appeal rights (LIC 9058) and their signature on this form acknowledges receipt of these forms.

The Notice of Site Visit (LIC 9213) – must remain posted for 30 days during the hours of operation after each site visit made by a licensing representative. Failure to maintain posting as required will result in a civil penalty of $100.00.
