There are areas offering a variety of activities for the children to develop and master educational skills and activities of daily living. Restroom is off the classroom.

Handwashing is emphasized after use of restroom as when transitioning from outdoor play back into the classroom and before & after meals. Water fountain in classroom is available to children to drink freely.

Breakfast and lunch are prepared at the elementary school and brought in from the school's cafeteria in containers that prevent food and milk from perishing. Meals are eaten family style. Food waste and trash are place in a trash can with a tight fitting lid and trash can moved outside. Tables are cleaned and flooring swept immediately after children have finished eating.

Yard is fenced and gated. It is used exclusively by the Head Start's morning session. There is a special education preschool but they do not use the yard when Head Start is in session--at least rarely. Yard offers an age appropriate play structure that uses tot turf under high impact areas. Wood chips are also used but will be replaced with tot turf. Per. Ms Yokoyama, children do not use the play structure (which appears new) as the wood chips are to be replaced with tot turf.. There is a paved area for trikes and a play fire truck that has tot turf under the truck and beyond fall zones. A sensory table is in place (at least 18 above ground) and it is empty except for leaves and twigs. Water dispenser with paper cups is available to children for drinking water.

Staff have copy of records demonstrating qualifications for positions served as well as current certification in pediatric CPR and First Aid. Children have emergency cards with parent/guardian information, who may pick up the child, and consent for emergency medical treatment. Required forms are posted: License, Personal rights, Parents Rights poster for Centers, Car Seat Law, and Emergency Disaster Plan are posted.

No deficiencies given. LPA noted the Head Start Program is preparing to close down for the summer (last day for children May 20, 2016) and will resume in August 2016.

Exit interview conducted with Ms. Yokoyama. Copy of report and appeal rights given. Notice of site visit posted on door used by parents/guardians entering the classroom for sign in or sign out.
