Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) The child that made the room over capacity was removed from the Gray room and placed in another room with other kids his age, where the room was not over capacity. In the future, when the preschoolers are in the Gray room for preschool, the number will not exceed twice the measured capacity of the space (8) for a period of more than a half hour. |
