Comments:
The licensing inspector conducted an unannounced monitoring inspection on 09/26/2019 from 9:00am to 12:10pm. The children were observed learning through play in centers, reciting the days of the week, identifying letters, playing on the playground and eating breakfast. Breakfast consisted of french toast sticks, fruit juice and milk. A formal observation was completed with two preschool classrooms. The menu was posted. Interviews were held with staff throughout the inspection, and the inspector interacted with children in each classroom when appropriate. All classrooms were inspected today as well as the playground.

Five children's files were reviewed. The staff files are located at another site and will be reviewed on a later date. Medication is being administered and was reviewed.
