The visit was conducted with you, Diamond Hill, Teacher. Meredith Elliott, Elementary Principal, was present for a portion of today's visit. This program currently operates with a Notice of Compliance issued on May 7, 2008. The restrictions include 1st shift and Rm. 1 will be used for preschool during the school year and School age during the summer. The last annual compliance visit was conducted October 22, 2025.

The most recent approved fire inspection for your facility was conducted on October 17, 2025 for daytime care only. The most recent monthly fire drill was conducted on May 4, 2026. The most recent quarterly shelter-in-place drill was conducted on February 26, 2026. The most recent monthly playground inspection was completed on March 24, 2026. Construction began in April 2026 on renovations to the fenced playground area. Since that time, children have had outdoor time in different open areas on the school premises outside the fenced area. The center's compliance history was reviewed with the operator. The program’s compliance history was 92 percent as of May 14, 2026.

A visit summary was not left at the conclusion of the visit as no individual listed on the legal designee form was present to sign. The following violations were observed: Violation Number Comment Rule 301 Minimum staff/child ratios and group sizes for the number and ages of children in care were not met. On May 12, 2026, in space #1, sixteen children three to five years of age were cared for by one staff member for an undetermined amount of time throughout the day.

Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before May 28, 2026, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Beth Archer, Child Care Consultant PO Box 64 Rutherfordton, NC 28139 beth.archer@dhhs.nc.gov. If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical assistance was provided on the following: All staff members must complete the process for a criminal background check and have a valid qualifying letter on file prior to employment. Staff should not be permitted to begin work or training at the facility until a criminal background check has been completed and a valid qualifying letter is on file. I suggested you review this information with potential hires during the interview process to ensure a qualifying letter is obtained prior to their first day of employment. We reviewed that a person who is monetarily compensated, has unsupervised contact with children, and is counted in staff-child ratio, would be considered a staff member and not a volunteer. A volunteer means a person who works in a child care facility and is not counted in staff/child ratio, does not have unsupervised contact with children, and is not monetarily compensated by the facility A staff member includes child care providers, substitute workers, and uncompensated providers. Volunteers are not staff members. Staff members are required to have a criminal background check prior to employment as well as all requirements listed in rule. A "Substitute provider" means any person who temporarily assumes the duties of a staff person for a time period not to exceed two consecutive months and may or may not be monetarily compensated by the facility and must be at least 18 years of age and literate. I provided you with a copy of the substitute staff file checklist that can be found on the DCDEE website under documents/forms. Your facility meets minimum requirements regarding staff/child ratios. The staff/child ratios and group sizes for single-age groups of children in centers shall be as follows: Age of Children (Ratio Staff/Children)-Maximum Group Size 3 to 4 Years (1/15)-25 4 to 5 Years (1/20)-25 5 Years and Older (1/25)-25 The staff/child ratio for the youngest child in the group must be maintained. We discussed that on 5/12/26, where one teacher was present, one additional staff member was required between 8:30am-1:30pm, when sixteen children were signed into care. I suggested you discuss how staffing will be addressed when the lead teacher or teacher are absent to ensure proper staff/child ratios can be maintained at all times. All staff, including the director and individuals who volunteer more than once per week must have the results indicating the individual is free of active tuberculosis on file on or before the first day of work. This must be obtained within the 12 months prior to the date of employment and must be on file on or before the employee’s first day of work. New staff members should not be permitted to begin work until they have the results of a TB test showing negative results or screening form on file. All staff members must review the center's Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan during orientation and on an annual basis thereafter with the staff member trained in Emergency Preparedness and Response. Documentation of the review must be maintained at the center in the individual's personnel file or in a file designated for emergency preparedness and response plan documents. All substitutes and volunteers counted in ratio must be informed of the child care center's Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan and its location. Documentation of this notice must be maintained in the individual personnel files or in a file designated for emergency preparedness and response plan documents. All staff members who care for children up to five (5) years of age must review the facility’s Prevention of Shaken Baby and Abusive Head Trauma Policy prior to the staff member caring for children. An acknowledgment of receipt and review must be on file. The acknowledgement of this review shall contain: (1) the individual’s name; (2) the date the center’s policy was given and explained to the individual; (3) the individual’s signature; and (4) the date the individual signed the acknowledgment. I suggested you create a new employee packet to ensure all required documentation is reviewed and on file for all staff members. I also suggested you use the substitute file checklist found on the DCDEE website under the “Provider” tab to ensure all required documentation is on file. I provided you with a copy of the substitute file checklist during the visit. Consultation or other topics discussed today: The ABCMS provider portal facility roster should be updated in ABCMS on an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-6401.

The NC Secretary of State website was viewed before the visit and New Manna Baptist Church of Marion, Inc. was current/active as of October 16, 2025. The facilities contact information was reviewed and confirmed with you. This program currently operates with a Notice of Compliance effective May 7, 2008. The permit restrictions including 1st shift, Room 1 will be used for preschool during school year and school-age during summer. The program’s compliance history was 100 percent prior to today’s visit. 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. A checklist was used to note the requirements I monitored today. A walk-through of the facility was completed today, all indoor and outdoor areas were monitored. I observed children in the indoor learning environment and found supervision and staff/child ratios in compliance. Children and staff were participating in lunch, free play activities indoors, and rest time. The last monthly fire drill was practiced on October 21, 2025. The last lockdown drill was practiced on September 4, 2025. The last monthly playground inspection was completed on October 15, 2025. A sample of two children’s records were reviewed.

The following violations were observed: Violation Number Comment Rule 1044 Prior to the expiration date of the qualification letter, the child care provider did not complete and submit required forms to complete a criminal background check (a qualification letter is valid for a maximum of five years for the date of issuance). Anthony Shirley had a qualification letter on file that expired 10/16/25. G.S. 110-90.2(b) & .2703(n)&(o) 1048 All staff did not successfully complete certification in First Aid appropriate to the age of children in care.

The last review of the EPR plan on file was completed April 16, 2024. .0607(e) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. Send me a letter of compliance describing in detail specifically how each violation was corrected and how compliance will be maintained in the future. Include the violation item number, statement of compliance, date of the visit and license ID number in the letter. I must receive your compliance statement by November 5, 2025. Please send your letter to Beth.Archer@dhhs.nc.gov. Failure to correct the violations and send the written statement by the due date may result in an unannounced follow-up visit being conducted or an administrative action may be recommended. The Division of Child Development may take administrative action against the license and/or impose civil penalties based on the failure of the operator to correct any documented violations within the established time period. If you state in your violation correction letter that corrections have been made when they have not, it will be considered falsification of information. Technical Assistance was provided on the following: All staff members must maintain active CPR/First Aid certification. For existing staff, I suggested you schedule classes two to four months prior to the current certifications’ expiration to ensure certification does not expire. I also suggested you contact Melanie Fox with Burke Child Care Connections at mfox.ccc@gmail.com for upcoming CPR/First Aid training. If you are unable to find training available before November 3, 2025, please email me to notify me when you are scheduled to take the required training and to request an extension. Prior to the expiration date of the current qualifying letter, all staff members must complete and submit the required forms and information to complete a criminal background check. I suggested you set calendar reminders, or create a working document to track the expiration dates of the qualifying letters for all staff members to ensure all staff members maintain a current and valid qualifying letter. I suggested you use the ABCMS Provider Portal to keep track of expiration dates of qualifying letters for all staff members. I also suggested you remind staff two months prior to the expiration date of their qualifying letter to complete an application for an updated qualifying letter to begin the process. We discussed that the pastor would need to complete an application and fingerprinting for a five year criminal background re-check. I reviewed the ABCSMS provider portal facility roster and the program does not have a current facility roster established. We discussed that you will need to complete the Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119 Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS on an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-8401 and someone will assist you. The facility roster with all current employees must be completed within the next two weeks. The staff member trained in Emergency Preparedness and Response must review and update the facility’s Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan annually, or when information in the plan changes, to ensure all information is current. I suggested you set a reminder in your calendar at least twice per year to review the Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan to ensure all of the information is up to date.
