In considering all the evidence, including observations while present at the facility, LPA determined that the teacher speaks with volume and gives firm directions. However, the information gathered does not provide a preponderance of evidence that they speak to children in a way that violates their personal rights. Without meeting a preponderance of evidence standard, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED, meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that it either did nor did not occur. Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the facility representative, Paolo Sarmiento. A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days. The director did not know how long the hole had been there but that they were aware of it and hadn't fixed it, stating that Orkin pest control services were working. LPA observed the hole in the kitchen to be filled by his visit on 4/25/2025 and the kitchen to be clean. LPA also observed a schedule of monthly services by Orkin Pest Control.
