Follow-up·February 5, 2024

On February 5, 2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA)Lorraine Dacanay Breaux arrived at the Facility unannounced for an required annual inspection for pre-school component #10216514. Also present during the inspection was one (1) staff for this school age component and one (1) ABA, and 17 school age children in care. LPA found a deficiency unrelated to the annual being conducted under Preschool component #10216514 resulting in this case management report. At around 3:00PM, LPA Dacanay Breaux observed a teacher supervising 17 children in the playground. The director did step into the classroom to meet the compliance. LPA requested for the staff file and after reviewing LPA discovered the staff is a "teacher's aide". Due to the staff not being a fully qualified teacher, staff is unable to be left alone with children. LPA did a consolation with the director and provided copies of the following Title 22 Regulations : 10126.2 (Teacher Aide Qualifications and Duties) and 101516.5 (Teacher Child Ratio) Due to the school being out of ratio, a Type B Violation is being cited today. Please see the attached deficiency page LIC 809-D. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. Appeals rights were given and reviewed Exit interview was conducted and report was reviewed with the Director , Esther Marical.
