Complaint·August 31, 2021

On 8/16/2021 @ 1:20 p.m., Licensing Program Analyst, Joelle Redding, made an unannounced visit to deliver findings on the above-referenced allegation. Based on information obtained during facility observation and interviews with Adninistration, staff and parents, it was determined that the school has not conveyed to parents and staff that masks for children over 2 are a requirement, not a recommendation, while they are inside the school. Less than half of the children in each classroom LPA visited had their masks on. Some teachers were not reinforcing or reminding the children who came to school without masks, to wear one in class and some children did not have a mask with them This complaint allegation is determined to be Substantiated as the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. A Type B deficiency under California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 1, is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D, indicating a potential hazard to children in care. Appeal Rights were discussed and provided. Signature at the bottom of this report confirms receipt. Notice of Site Visit was posted and will remain posted for 30 days.
