On 05/23/2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Jeremey McClain and Eduardo Barragan met with Director Mary Patten in order to close a complaint investigation. LPAs observed 46 children supervised by eight staff in four separate rooms. It was alleged that a teacher pushed a child off a two-foot table inside the classroom. During the investigation, LPA conducted interviews with staff, parents, and children; made observations of teacher and child interactions, and reviewed staff files. LPA also reviewed recorded footage of the alleged incident. Based on the evidence that was gathered, LPA determined the preponderance of evidence standard has not been met. Therefore, the allegation is neither confirmed or dismissed, and is determined to be unsubstantiated.

There were no Title 22 deficiencies as a result of the investigation. LPAs reviewed this report with Director and provided a Notice of Site Visit that must be posted for 30 days.
