On 09/24/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Carol Heath conducted an unannounced Annual/Random inspection at Wrightwood Elementary School and met with Site Supervisor Katie Morgan. LPA explained the purpose of the visit and was granted entry. Upon arrival, LPA observed one classroom (#2) in operation with 16 children, one teacher, and two aides present. The center's hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:10 AM to 11:10 AM. Incidental Medical Services (IMS) were discussed, and according to the Site Supervisor, no children currently require IMS.
Physical Plant: LPA toured and inspected the preschool classroom. Furniture and equipment were appropriate for the children's ages and in good repair. All rooms were clean and safe. The telephone was confirmed, and heating, lighting, and ventilation were adequate. LPA observed cubbies labeled with the children's names for storing personal belongings. Age-appropriate toys and materials were available, and the daily activity schedule was posted in each classroom. As this is a half-day program, no napping equipment was required. Drinking water was provided inside the classrooms using disposable plastic cups and water jugs. Additionally, a fire extinguisher (last checked on 6/2024), smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector were present on the premises.
All containers used for storing solid waste, including movable bins, must have tight-fitting lids that remain in place. These containers must be leakproof and rodent-proof.
There are no bathrooms within the classroom. Children use two bathrooms located on the school campus, each equipped with individual stalls for privacy and sinks.

The bathrooms were observed to be in safe and sanitary condition, with properly functioning, age-appropriate toilets and sinks. Soap, toilet paper, and paper towels were readily available.
A review of the medication policy indicated that prescription medication is only administered with written permission from the parent. The Director and other administrative staff are responsible for administering medication and documenting the dosage, date, and time in a log. Medication, correctly labeled and stored in its original container, is locked at the center unless a parent requests its daily return. Medication is kept at the center until expiration and then sent home with the parent for disposal. The director's office has a designated area for isolating and caring for ill children, which includes a mat for rest. An isolated toilet and sink in the staff restroom are also available for ill children.
A Fire Drill/Earthquake log (dated 10/2023) is in the office. According to the supervisor, the preschool practice with school. LPA recommend the disaster drills have been conducted for at least six months. A current roster is available.
Lead Testing: A case management visit was conducted on 1/13/2023. LPA observed ELKAY EZH20 filtered water in the classroom.
Outdoor Area: The play equipment was inspected for health, safety, cushioning materials, good repair, and age appropriateness. The preschool program uses the kindergarten and transitional kindergarten (T-K) outdoor play area at Wrightwood Elementary School. LPA inspected the outdoor space and noted that it includes a large play structure with a slide and a climbing wall, as well as three swings. The play structure is securely anchored, and the cushioning material beneath it consists of wood chips. The area was observed to be free of debris during the inspection. Drinking fountains are available within the play yard, and natural shaded areas are provided.
LPA also observed a first aid kit and provided the Director with a first aid supplies checklist.
