Lead Summary

The Patri-Tots Learning Center at Southern State Community College in Wilmington has once again received a 100-percent compliance rating on its state licensing inspection. This is the third perfect rating in the past two years, with the previous ones being February 2010 and January 2011. 
Licensed child learning centers are subject to two inspections by the state licensing agency each year. One is announced and the other is unannounced.  The visit on Aug. 1 was unannounced. Therefore, attaining a 100-percent rating at that inspection is an especially wonderful achievement. 
"I would like to thank the teachers for their dedication to our children and families; and for working so hard to make the Patri-Tots the high quality program that it is," said Karee Shaw, site administrator. "We recognize that the support of our families, the community and the Patri-Tots staff at the Hillsboro campus has helped us achieve this goal. To them, we say, thank you!"
Southern State houses Patri-Tots Learning Centers at Central Campus in Hillsboro and North Campus in Wilmington. Both child learning centers are licensed by the ODJFS and are open five days a week, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., serving community members and college students, faculty and staff.  
The Hillsboro location accepts children from 18 months to 12 years of age and the Wilmington location accepts children from 18 months to 5 years of age. There are both part-time and full-time space options at each location. 
Developmentally appropriate activities within a preschool setting are provided by qualified teachers who have aligned their curriculum with the Ohio Early Learning Content Standards. 
Southern State's child learning centers are in the process of applying for inclusion in the "Step Up to Quality" program, a voluntary quality-rating system for early care and education programs licensed by the ODJFS. This program is partnered with the Ohio Department of Education's Office of Early Learning and School Readiness.
