An unannounced renewal inspection was conducted from 9:45 - 11:45am with the center director. There were 52 children, ranging from three years to five years of age, present with seven staff supervising. Children were observed engaged in teacher-directed literacy activities, playing with age-appropriate toys in a variety of centers and completing seasonal arts and crafts projects. Four child records and four staff records were reviewed, along with the emergency drill log, written daily attendance, written allergy list, two medications and authorization forms, the medication log, first aid kit and emergency supplies, and the fire and health inspections. The playground was not observed due to inclement weather. If you have further questions about this inspection please contact Donna Liberman at 540-359-5244 or Donna.Liberman@doe.virginia.gov.
