On 8/15/2024 @ 10:16AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Nancy Diaz conducted an unannounced inspection in reference to an allegation that the facility was out of compliance with teacher-child ratio. LPA met with Ladonna Lambert, School Principal/Preschool Director. There were no children observed present today. School will resume session on August 19th. LPA interviewed Mrs. Lambert and 2 staff today. Staff admitted that PS2 room was out of ratio with up to 24 children with 1 teacher and 2 aides. Mrs. Lambert stated that this was due to staff shortage.
Based on the evidence obtained, it is determined that PS 2 classroom was out of ratio with one fully qualified teacher and 2 aides with up to 24 children. Therefore, based on the evidence gathered the above allegation is substantiated. It is determined that the licensee was in violation of California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12, Chapter 1, Section 101216.3 Teacher-Child Ratio.
