| 2026-06-09 | Complaint | 13A.16.07.01 | Corrected |
| Findings: The complaint alleges that a teacher working with preschool-aged children at the center grabbed a 3-year-old child by the shirt and yelled at the child. It was reported that the child did not want to attend "school" because the teacher was mean. According to the reporter, the child also reenacted the incident for an adult, demonstrating how the teacher grabbed their shirt. The center director and a staff member who worked alongside the teacher were interviewed. Both stated they had never witnessed the teacher use physical discipline with children; however, they described her tone as harsh and stern. The director reported that she was aware of the incident and had received numerous complaints from parents indicating that their children referred to the teacher as "mean." The director stated that she addressed the incident with the teacher and discussed her tone, discipline approach, and age-appropriate expectations for working with preschool-aged children. However, the director indicated that she did not believe the teacher was a good fit. As a result, the teacher has not returned to the center since 5/8/26, and the center is actively interviewing candidates. See remarks. | |||
