Violations

1
Standard 8VAC20-780-350-B-4
Based on staff interviews and a review of attendance records, it was determined that one class of 4 year olds operated beyond the allowable staff:child ratio of 1:10.
Evidence:
On 6/21/2022 the PK1 class operated beyond the allowable ratio of 1 staff:10 children. Between 8:30am and 9:00am, staff person A stepped out of the classroom approximately 3 times leaving staff person B with more than 10 children. Staff person A stepped out for approximately 4-5 minutes each time.
Plan of Correction: This issue was immediately fixed as of 6/22/2022. Staffing patterns were changed by having staff arrive earlier in the morning so that all classes always operate within the correct ratios.
