During staff interviews, staff stated they are never out of ratio. Staff stated if a child needs to wash their hands or go to the bathroom, staff will open the door to the classroom, stand at the door, not leaving the playground, and observe the child. Staff stated if a child needs help in the bathroom; staff will ask for backup from another teacher or the director.

During children interviews, children stated they will ask to go to the bathroom, the teacher will open the door to the classroom, stand at the door, not leaving the playground and observe the child in the bathroom and also the children on the playground.

While touring the facility, LPA observed the teacher can observe the child while in the bathroom or washing hands; while still being able to observe the children on the playground.

Based on interviews and LPA’s own observation, LPA is unable to determine if the facility was out of ratio; therefore, the allegation of out of ratio is unsubstantiated



Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Exit interview conducted with director, report, appeal rights and Notice of Site Visit provided.

LPA observed director post Notice of Site Visit.
