This facility will operate on a traditional school year schedule. Hours of operation will be Monday – Friday, 8:10 am – 2:50 pm.
All indoor and outdoor activity space utilized for the children was inspected today. LPA informed Representative that staff are required to maintain direct visual supervision of the children at all times during indoor and outdoor activities. When medications are on site, Representative stated that they will be in the School Office (Portable A) in the school nurse’s office. A fully equipped first aid kit is located in a red backpack in each classroom. There is an operational carbon monoxide detector on site located in each classroom. All required licensing documents were observed posted on a parent board in each classroom. Children will be signed in and out at the entrance to each classroom.
LPA continued to tour the facility and measured all indoor and outdoor activity space. Total indoor activity space measured to an approximate 1,575 square feet which is sufficient to accommodate the requested capacity of 45 preschool children. LPA observed all indoor activity space to be complete with safe, age-appropriate furniture and equipment, including tables, chairs, cubbies, napping mats, cribs, bookshelves, and other activity supplies for the children. Drinking water is available in the classrooms via a filtered water pitcher. Children bring sippy cups from home but the facility has paper cups and water bottles in case a parent forgets to send their child without a cup.
