These skills include the ability to solve problems, communicateneeds and emotions appropriately and effectively and build friendships. Our staffmembers provide: A caring community.Schedules, routines and expectations for safe, responsible and respectfulbehavior.Models of effective communication.Activities that are meaningful, meet the individual needs of all children, andpromote engagement with other children and adults.A team approach to addressing challenging behavior which includes parents asactive participants.An environment free from corporal or unusual punishment, infliction of pain,humiliation, intimidation, ridicule, threat, mental abuse, or other punitive actions.The Desired Results Developmental Profile 2015Staff members in Early Childhood Education programs provide a personalized learning plan foreach child through the use of an assessment tool developed by the California Department ofEducation, Early Education and Support Division. The Desired Results Developmental Profile(DRDP) is a validated assessment instrument that covers the developmental domains ofphysical, cognitive and social-emotional development and is aligned with the K -12 standards.It gives specific feedback that informs ongoing instructional planning throughout the year andis an important tool for articulation between early childhood education and elementary schoolstaff as children transition to kindergarten. Children are assessed using the DRDP within 60days of enrollment and every six months thereafter. Parent input is a necessary component ofthis assessment.12

The Environmental Rating ScaleThe California Department of Education, Early Education and Support Division, requiresthe use of the Environmental Rating Scale designed to assess quality in EarlyChildhood Education programs. Depending upon the ages served, programs use eitherthe Infant/Toddler Environmental Rating Scale or the Early Childhood EnvironmentalRating Scale. Each scale has items to evaluate the physical environment, basic care,curriculum, interactions that go on between staff and children, schedule and programstructure, and parent and staff education.Requesting Pupil RecordsParents/guardians may request pupil record information about their child by providingthe school with a written request that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. Theschool will make arrangements for access and notify the parent/guardian of the timeand place where the records may be inspected. Parents/guardians who would like torequest a change to a record should contact the principal.13

Health, Social Services and NutritionHealthIn order to ensure that all of our children are healthy and safe while at school, thefollowing procedures and routines have been established: All children enrolled in licensed child care facilities and public schools mustprovide a record of current immunizations. Prior to, or within 30 calendar daysfollowing enrollment, a written report of the child’s physical exam, prepared by alicensed physician, must be provided. The preferred form is the Department ofSocial Services form LIC 701, “Physician’s Report”. TB tests are not required forchildren entering preschool programs unless certain risk factors are present. TheLIC 701 has a checkbox at the bottom that indicates whether there is a need forTB screening. Any physician’s report provided by the parent must be less thanone year old.New students will not be enrolled unless a written immunization record, providedby a health care provider or the health department, is presented at the time ofenrollment and immunizations are up-to-date. Students who require additionalvaccine doses at the time of enrollment or who lack a written record are nolonger allowed a grace period. All students new to the District, or transferstudents within the District, must show that they have received all currentlyrequired immunizations in order to be enrolledThe immunization status of all students will be reviewed periodically. Thosestudents who do not meet the State guidelines must be excluded from schooluntil the requirements are met. Students who have been exposed to acommunicable disease for which they have not been immunized may beexcluded from school at the discretion of the health department. A doctor mayexempt your child from some or all immunizations (for example, due to a medicalcondition). You may exempt your child because of your personal or religiousbeliefs.Starting January 1, 2014, state law requires the completion of a new thePersonal Belief Exemption (PBE) form to exempt children fromimmunizations that are required for school entry or advancement. The PBEform is a statement signed and dated by a health care practitioner andparent indicating that the practitioner has provided, and the parent hasreceived, information about the benefits and risks of immunizations andthe risks of vaccine-preventable diseases. Ask your school or childcareprovider for details. A daily wellness check is completed upon the arrival of each child to ensure thatchildren are healthy and able to participate in daily activities. When it is observedthat children arrive to the classroom ill, they will be required to be taken home.(Illness does not refer to medical conditions that are not contagious.) A child suspected of having a communicable disease will be excluded from anearly childhood education program until guidelines for readmission are met.14

Guidelines for exclusion and readmission follow policies set forth by the schooldistrict, the State Department of Health and Department of Education. Guidancein addressing communicable diseases also comes from the Center for DiseaseControl and Prevention and national organizations.Temporary exclusion generally occurs for communicable diseases including, butnot limited to the following: measles, conjunctivitis (pink eye), impetigo, strepthroat, chickenpox, scabies, head lice, and whooping cough. Readmission to theprogram is based on condition and appropriate treatment. In order for the school nurse or designated early childhood education staffmember to provide a child with prescription medication a District required form,Request for Medication to be Taken During School Hours must be completedand signed by both the physician and parent. The form is available at the earlyeducation center or elementary school office. A child returning to school with sutures, casts, crutches, braces or a wheelchairmust have a health care provider’s written permission to attend school and mustcomply with any safety procedures required by school administration and healthservices personnel. A child returning to school following a serious or prolongedillness, injury, surgery or other hospitalization must have written permission bythe health care provider to attend school, including any recommendationsregarding physical activity. A current District Emergency Information Card must be on file at the school sothat parents can be notified promptly in case of accident or injury involving theirchild. A child may only be released to an adult at least 18 years old listed onthe Emergency Information card.School nursing support is provided to Early Childhood Education programs. Servicesinclude: assistance with medication administration, first aid training, health appraisals,dental and vision screening, medical/health referrals and follow-up, communicabledisease control, immunization follow-up, health education for children and parents, andon-site staff training.Social ServicesMental health consultants are available to provide support to families and staff membersin order to help children develop healthy relationships with peers, family, school andcommunity and to develop problem-solving skills and a sense of self-confidence. Theyprovide a range of services including parent education, mental health consultation andpositive behavior support planning.NutritionAll children enrolled in Early Childhood Education programs will receive at least onenutritious meal daily, depending upon the length of the program. At both the EarlyEducation Center and the CSPP at the elementary school, meals are served in theclassroom where children can enjoy a pleasant social atmosphere. At mealtime theypractice eating independently, eat and enjoy a variety of foods and engage in social andinstructional conversations with other children and adults at their tables.15
