complaint·February 5, 2025

LPAs reviewed the physical sign-in/out records and found them to be complete and accurate, with no discrepancies. A second complaint was received and alleged that staff did not properly transport children, specifically that the bus driver drove too fast and that children slid on the seats during transit. Interviews revealed that staff members, including S1, S2, and the Director, transport school-age children. They ensure proper procedures by matching names to faces, securing seat belts, and verifying that children are seated properly before departure. Upon arrival at the center, two additional staff members are present to assist the children. An inspection of all transportation vehicles found no safety concerns. Based on the information obtained there is not enough evidence to prove that staff were not following sign-in and out procedures and that staff did not properly transport daycare children. Therefore, the allegations are deemed unsubstantiated at this time. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. A copy of this report, along with appeal rights and a notice of site visit, was provided and explained to acting Director Tara Martinez.
