In result of this change, CSB will have several part day/part year only centers. By federal and state regulations, these centers do not require to be staffed with Site Supervisors. Oversight of these center can be provided by Teachers who meet Community Care Licensing requirement and possess adult supervision course work and experience. The classification of Master Teacher which exist within CSB meets these requirement. Therefore, CSB will staff the part day/part year only centers with Master Teachers. Adding additional Master Teacher positions will provide opportunity for professional growth for the CSB staff and will create a career ladder consistent with the California State Department of Education Child Development Permit Matrix. Additionally, staffing the centers with Master Teachers and eliminating the site supervisors will result in significant cost reduction. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to add the Master Teacher positions and staff the part day/part year only centers with Master Teachers may result in inadequate staffing of these centers, inefficient operation and failure to meet Community Care Licensing Requirements. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: The Employment & Human Services Department Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes - Outcome 1: “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School,” Outcome 3: “Families that are Economically Self-sufficient,” and, Outcome 4: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing.” These outcomes are achieved by offering comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education, nutrition, and health services to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County. This action will not have any impact on the children and the services provided by CSB. ATTACHMENTS P-300 #21129
