May 2024 Complaint Unsubstantiated
Complaint · May 22, 2024
ALLEGATION(S): -Staff did not abide by admission agreement INVESTIGATION FINDINGS: A follow-up complaint investigation visit was made today by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Y.Y. to deliver complaint investigation findings. Previously, an investigation visit was made to the facility by the LPA on 05/23/24. It has been alleged that staff did not abide by the center’s admission agreement. Specifically, it was alleged that the facility did not provide advanced notice to children’s authorized representatives prior to disenrolling their child(ren) from the facility. During the initial investigation visit to the facility on 05/23/24, the LPA met with the center director, A.A.T. and the facility’s licensee, S.S. to discuss the allegation. The licensee stated that the facility has never disenrolled a child from its program but reserves the right to do so for any reason. Per the center’s admission agreement, “Parents and the school have the right to disenroll the child(ren) at any time for any reason, with a two-week notice. The school may choose to waive the right if there is a risk to any parties involved.” The center director corroborated the licensee’s statements.
