The 18 month compliance history, prior to today's visit, was 99%. A checklist was used to monitor the facility today. I met with David Gentry, Site Coordinator during today's visit. I was provided a notebook that had all the paperwork I needed to review during the annual compliance visit. The current Public School Off Site Verification Form for Staff Records, Children's Record and Transportation was signed and on file with each current staff listed and all current children enrolled listed for before school and after school. I reviewed the current ASEP bulletin board outside the cafeteria and observed all information required to be posted, except for the current activity plan. Each group leader had the teacher directed activity plan in their notebook on their activity care, however the second page of the activity plan, which lists the gross motor and the centers you will offer daily was not available for review. The last fire inspection was conducted on 6-12-23. The last sanitation inspection was conducted on 9-15-23. The emergency drill log was reviewed and found meeting compliance. I observed you and the other group leader set up centers for both groups in the cafeteria. Each group had six centers set up. As children entered they placed their belongings down, washed hands sat down and worked on homework. Snack was provided and children were allowed to play in centers. You showed me the outdoor environment that is used for outdoor time. You have two areas available for use. Currently the stationary equipment was observed with adequate depth of resilient surfacing. You have two children that have medication required for food allergies. Permission is on site and the medication is stored in the nurses office. You have access to the nurses office. You stated during field trips you will keep the medication and permission to administer in your travel back and keep the bag on your person.
