It was alleged that a staff yelled at a day care child enrolled in the preschool program. There was conflicting information after conducting interviews with pertinent parties, conducting observations, and reviewing of facility records.

Although the allegation that a staff yelled at a day care child 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 the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No citations were issued.

No civil penalty was issued.

Notice of Site Visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.

Exit interview was conducted, a copy of this report was provided to the Director Bonnie Acosta.

THIS REPORT MUST BE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST FOR THREE YEARS.
