Montessori Academy of Upland

Case management visit for capacity increase request from 99 to 129 children in Preschool Program. Physical space supports requested increase, but critical deficiency found: not all staff and individuals requiring background checks have received clearances or exemptions. Type A citation and civil penalty issued pending correction.

This was a licensee-initiated capacity increase evaluation from 70 to 100 children. The center appeared generally ready for the expansion, but the licensee still needed to submit updated administrative documents and add a toddler changing table near a sink.
