Ratios. Ratios are the number of teaching personnel required to be physically present with a child or group of children, per Oklahoma Administrative Code (OAC) 340 Appendix GG - Ratios and Group Sizes. Only teaching personnel count in ratios, unless requirements specifically state otherwise. The program is required to maintain ratios at all times.
One class observed had a ratio of 5:10:2 for infants and older with 5 being under two. Per policy, each staff member in the room can only have 2 under the age of two making a total of 4 under two years old.
