[quote=Anonymous]To 15:16, (14:52 here) I agree that some kids need longer naps and that may work well for some, especially the younger kids. Not all the kids need that long no matter how hard they play. But regardless, I think what is more troubling is that FB uses nap time as the teacher break time and one teacher is routinely permitted to leave the room while the other teacher remains alone with the sleeping kids. I have since learned that this is in violation of DC's basic certification requirements (forget about NAEYC, this is basic licensure stuff). This is a violation that is planned into their staffing model, not the result of short-staffing on a day-by-day basis. If something happened to one of those kids and the sole teacher had to take care of that child, there would be no one left to take care of the others. I don't even mean emergency. I mean if the teacher is taking one kid to the bathroom, then she cannot be paying attention to the other kids. This is a basic safety precaution. Maybe this has changed since last summer. I sure hope so.[/quote]
