During the Tele-Inspection conducted on 04/02/2021 LPA Corral discovered school age and preschool children commingle. It was determined through interviews with three Staff Members that preschool and school aged children play together in the afternoon. One Staff member stated that preschool and school age children commingle and interact in the preschool playground at the end of the day. Another Staff stated that preschool and school age children are together in the same classroom when one of the teachers needs to use the restroom. During the Staff Interviews three Staff members stated that preschool and school age children commingle at the end of the day in the school age room or in the preschool playground. Based on the information that was obtained from interviewing three Staff Members, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation regarding Daycare children are allowed to co-mingling is found to be Substantiated .
