This visit was conducted by Whitney Parker, Childcare Consultant with Irma McPhatter, Principal, Tontesia Flythe, Lead Teacher, and Jeanette Corbett, Assistant Teacher. The allegations are as follows: There is a concern of inadequate supervision. A child was left outside on the playground unattended for an unknown amount of time. During today’s visit, the allegations were discussed with you. You had the opportunity to respond. Information shared during this visit are documented in this visit summary. The program currently operates with a four-star license re-issued 8/12/22. Restrictions include daytime care only; meets enhanced space; meets enhanced ratios; meets all enhanced requirements and reduced ratios minus one. This program is operated by Winston Salem Forsyth County Schools. Rooms 111 and 113 are designated NCPK. The program’s compliance history was 88% prior to today’s visit. All programs are required to maintain at least 75% compliance. Today, the following items were monitored: • Supervision • Staff / Child Ratio • Adequate / Approved Space • License Posted • Permit Restrictions Allegation #1: There is a concern of inadequate supervision. A child was left outside on the playground unattended for an unknown amount of time. Observation #1: On 11/12/2024, an employee from Winston-Salem Forsyth County schools called the DCDEE to self-report an incident that occurred on 11/06/2024 at approximately 2:02 p.m. During today’s visit, I visited spaces 111 and 113. I interviewed five employees, including two lead teachers, two assistant teachers, and the principal. The teachers in space 113 did not have any knowledge about the allegation and did not have any additional information about the incident. I interviewed the two teachers in space 111 where the child in question is enrolled. Ms. Flythe and Ms. Corbett stated that they came in from the playground and immediately sent the children to the bathroom to wash their hands. Both teachers stated that Ms. Corbett was positioned at the exterior door watching the children wash their hands. Both teachers stated that there was one child that was outside and that the child wiggled the door handle to come inside at which time Ms. Corbett let her in the classroom. Ms. Corbett stated that when the child came to the door, she asked the child why she did not come to the door with the rest of the class and the child did not respond. Ms. Flythe and Ms. Corbett both stated they make sure all children are accounted for by visibly counting children during transitions. Ms. Corbett stated they engage the children in counting to make it a learning activity as well. Ms. Flythe stated they blow a whistle to alert the children that it is time to go inside when they are coming inside from outdoor play. Both teachers stated they supervise children by constantly walking around and monitoring the children. I also interview the principal of the school. Ms. McPhatter stated that both teachers in space 111 approached her after school on 11/06/2024 stating that a parent had contacted the assistant teacher by the Class Dojo application stating that her child was dirty and had been left outside. Ms. McPhatter stated that the lead teacher called the parent back to discuss the message and that the conversation escalated on both parts. Ms. McPhatter stated the parent came to visit her the next day (11/07/2024) and expressed the same concerns to her that she expressed to the teachers the previous day. Ms. McPhatter told the parent she would look into the situation. Ms. McPhatter also stated that the parent contacted Ms. Tonya Love at Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools to discuss the matter. Ms. McPhatter stated that after talking to the parent and Winston-Salem Forsyth County School employees, she decided to look at the video footage from 11/06/2024. Ms. McPhatter stated that when she watched the video footage, she observed the children enrolled in space 111 playing on the playground and then going inside the building at approximately 2:36 p.m. Ms. McPhatter stated that she immediately noticed a child on the opposite end of the playground near the home living equipment by herself. Ms. McPhatter stated she observed the child walk up the sidewalk and pull on the door. Ms. McPhatter stated that at approximately 2:38 p.m. the child appears to be walking away from the door but that the camera glitches and does not come back on until 2:42 p.m. Ms. McPhatter stated after she watched the video, she asked the teachers to write a statement and met with them after school that afternoon to discuss the incident and show the teachers the video footage. Ms. McPhatter stated the teachers stated that Ms. Corbett was positioned at the exterior door. Ms. McPhatter stated the child came back to school on the 7th but did not stay. Ms. McPhatter stated that after speaking to the family, the child did return to school on the 8th and has been in attendance regularly since. Ms. McPhatter stated that at this time she requested a hold on the video to ensure the footage was accessible to DCDEE employees. She also stated that she has contacted their legal team and HR to discuss the incident and has worked with the employees to get statements of the incident. Ms. McPhatter also stated she discussed some localize plans of methods to be discussed to implement strategies in the classroom with Winston-Salem Forsyth County School employees. I observed classroom schedules and staff/child interactions in space 111. The classroom schedule reflects that children have outdoor play time from 2:05 p.m. to 2:35 p.m. daily. Teachers were positioned in the classroom where they were engaging with the children during indoor gross motor activities. Teachers were positioned where they could see and hear the children. Supervision was adequate during the visit. I observed the playground during the visit. The playground is a large open area with various learning stations set up for children enrolled in the pre-kindergarten classroom as well as children enrolled in Kindergarten in the school. The exterior door of space 111 is located at the opposite end of the playground where the home living equipment is located. During the visit, I looked out the exterior door window and attempted to see the opposite end of the playground where the home living equipment is located. I was not able to see the opposite end of the playground from the window of the exterior door. I observed the arrival and departure of sheet from 11/06/2024. There were five (5) children documented as present between 2:35 p.m. and 2:52 p.m. on 11/06/2024. The child in question was signed out by the child’s parent at 2:39 p.m. on 11/06/2024. I was also able to view video footage from 11/06/2024. I observed footage from 2:00 p.m. to 2:43 p.m. During the video observation, I observed the children enrolled in space 111, Ms. Flythe, and Ms. Corbett enter the playground area at approximately 2:01 p.m. I observed the children engaging in free play outdoors until approximately 2:35 p.m. when the children began walking to the exterior door to go back into the classroom. I observed the teachers in space 111 standing by the exterior door, holding the door open, and waiting on the children to go inside. I observed the teachers positioned with their backs toward the back of the playground where the home living equipment is set up. I observed the assistant teacher use a key to lock the exterior door handle prior to entering the building. I observed four (4) children enter the exterior door to enter space 111. At approximately 2:36 p.m., after the four children entered the exterior door to enter space 111, I observe the two teachers walk in the door and the door appeared to shut behind them. At 2:36 p.m. on the video footage, I observed a child on the opposite end of the playground where the home living equipment is set up. I observed the child approach the sidewalk and walk to the exterior door of space 111 at approximately 2:37 p.m. I observed the child looking at the door for approximately forty-five (45) seconds. I observed the child reach for the door handle and attempt to manipulate the door handle for approximately fifteen (15) more seconds. At approximately 2:38 p.m., I observed the child let the door hand go and turn her body away from the door. At approximately 2:38 p.m., I observed the camera system glitch out. The camera footage returned at approximately 2:42 p.m. at which time the child could no longer be seen on the playground footage. I also observed video footage from the playground area from 11/13/2024 from approximately 2:30 p.m. to 2:35 p.m. I observed the teachers in space 111 have the children gather at the exterior door and then entered in space 111. I observed the assistant teacher look at the back of the playground prior to entering space 111. Conclusion #1: Based on the above information and observations during today’s visit, there was enough information to support the allegation. This allegation was substantiated. The following violation was cited during today’s visit: Violation Number Comment Rule 303 Children were not adequately supervised at all times. On 11/06/2024, a child was left outside on the playground unattended for a minimum of two (2) minutes. .1801(a)(1-5) Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain compliance at all times and are required by NC GS 110-90(4) (d) to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent. Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. You must correct the violation cited during today's visit immediately and send me documentation verifying compliance on or before 11/28/24. The following information must be included in your signed and dated compliance letter: • the name of your center • facility ID number • date • title of the person who signs the letter • each violation number(s) • describes accurately and in detail how and when you corrected each violation You may email the letter to whitney.parker@dhhs.nc.gov or mail two copies of the letter to: Whitney Parker P.O. Box 1342 Lexington, NC 27293 If you state in your letter that corrections or changes have been made when they have not, it will be considered falsification of information and could lead to administrative action taken by the DCDEE. Repeated violations, continued non-compliance, or failure to submit the compliance letter prior to the date given in this visit summary can also lead to administrative action taken by the DCDEE. Additional monitoring visits may be conducted during the year to monitor compliance with applicable childcare requirements. An unannounced monitoring visit will be conducted to verify correction of the violation cited during today’s visit. Technical assistance discussed during today’s visit related to the violation: • We discussed that children must be supervised at all times. You must be able to render assistance if needed at all times. We discussed that based on the video footage; the child appeared to be out of view for approximately one (1) minute prior to approaching the classroom door where the child could have been visible from the exterior door window. We also discussed that the child was looking in the window of the exterior door and manipulating the door handle for approximately one (1) additional minute prior to the video footage cutting off. I recommend implementing a plan to transition from inside to outside and outside to inside to ensure that all children are accounted for at all times. Additional Information/Consultation: • You must notify your consultant 30 days prior to changing the ownership status of your facility. • During the visit, Ms. Corbett inquired about the rated license process. The hold harmless was extended until the QRIS modernization has been completed. The previous cohort model is no longer in effect. Starting on February 1, 2025, the ECERS-3, ITERS-3, and FCCERS-3—also known as the "3s"—will be used for DCDEE environment rating scale assessments. The DCDEE and the North Carolina Rated License Assessment Project (NCRLAP) are collaboratively working on preparations for the transition to the third editions. These third editions come with a spiral binding at the top, replacing the current revised editions. Visit the NCRLAP’s website for more information about updated resources, credit hour trainings, and outreach assessment opportunities to help you become familiar with these tools. For official environment rating scale assessments for a NC Star Rated License, the NCRLAP will use the Revised editions until February 1, 2025. You can find more information at this link: https://ncrlap.org/Resources/pages/get-ready-for-3s/ • During the visit, Ms. Inzar inquired about her WORKS letter. I will follow up with Ms. Inzar by email after the visit. At the completion of the visit, this visit summary was reviewed with and provided to you.
