Center-based Program Year Shutdown Checklist

To ensure the center is clean, safe and secure, the Center-based Program Year Shutdown Checklist will be completed at the end of each program year.

Head Teachers and Site Supervisors will assign shutdown tasks accordingly and follow-up to ensure completion of tasks.

After each task is completed, staff will initial and date the Completed column.

Once all shutdown tasks are completed, the Head Teacher/Site Supervisor will sign and date the Center-based Program Year Shutdown Checklist and scan to their Area Manager. Once scanned, original may be shredded.

Items completed only by centers that close for the summer are noted with an asterisk.
