During the accrediting body's previous visit, your center was found to have deficiencies in its scheduling process, both for child and staff. Notably, the findings of the reports are as follows:

• In the infant room, children who were not on the daily roster were found in attendance.It was discovered that families were being permitted to add days as needed without changing the roster.
• In the two-year-old room, it was found that lunch breaks were being taken during the children's nap time and a substitute was not secured, leaving the room out of compliance with student teacher ratio for the age group.
• In the after school classroom, it was found that there was no one scheduled to work, so the after school children were placed in the preschool classroom, causing that room to exceed capacity by one student.
