A civil penalty of $100.00 minimum/day for a maximum of 5 days or, if the penalty is for a repeat violation, for a maximum of 30 days per person will be assessed if this regulation is violated.

LPA observed that all classrooms appeared clean including the carpets and floor. Furniture and equipment are in good condition, and toileting facilities are in safe, sanitary, and operating condition. Chemicals and cleaning materials were kept inaccessible to children. The food preparation space is free of litter and all food was protected against contamination. Trash cans have tight fitting lids. Medications are stored in an area inaccessible to children.
