On August 27, 2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Marilou Monico made an unannounced Complaint Inspection. LPA met with Site Director, Chinlan 'Jina' Wang, and explained the nature of today's visit. LPA toured the facility and interviewed staff.

During the investigation, LPA conducted observations and interviewed staff and parents. Based on interviews, on August 6, 2026, a child (C1) exited the facility unnoticed by staff and was later located outside the campus by a parent (P1). This incident was not reported to Licensing as required. Additionally, based on LPA’s observations and interviews, a licensing report documenting a Type A citation issued on August 6, 2026 pertaining to Teacher-Child Ratio, was not posted at the facility. Furthermore, parents were not provided copy of the licensing report documenting the Type A citation issued on that same date.

Based on LPA's observation and interviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED.
