Violations

1
Standard 8VAC20-780-350-B-4
Based on observation and interview the center failed to maintain the required staff: children ratio of 1:10 for children ages three years old to school eligibility.
Evidence:
1. In the PreK classroom, there were 12 children. Staff #6 confirmed the age of the youngest child was four years old.
2. Staff #7 was observed leaving the classroom twice to go to the kitchen, leaving Staff #6 alone with 12 children.
Plan of Correction: Talk to (Staff #7) about the importance of staying in her room so the other teacher is not left alone throwing her out of ratio.
