Refusal of Annual Monitoring

If an ELP refuses an annual monitoring visit, the Assessor will remind the ELP in writing via email that a monitoring visit is a requirement of Texas Rising Star and will occur within the next four to six weeks, citing the Guidelines and Child Care Services rule §809.133(d)(1). In this correspondence, the Assessor informs the ELP that failure to comply when the Assessor arrives the second time will result in an immediate loss of Texas Rising Star certification, placing the ELP on Suspension status, and that the ELP will be required to wait six months to request an assessment. The Assessor will follow the guidance provided in the EUG regarding refused monitoring visits to document this occurrence.
