Inspection snapshot

Questions worth asking

The records include recorded violations parents may want to understand before enrolling. These are conversation starters, not a pass-or-fail judgment.

Next: Review the inspection history below and ask the provider what the records mean and what changed afterward.

Summary

This summary covers 34 available inspections for The Learning Experience from October 26, 2021 through August 6, 2026.

18 inspections recorded violations, with 40 recorded violations in total.

The most recent higher-concern violation was on June 11, 2026 and involved supervision.

That higher-concern topic showed up in three inspections.

Three later inspections, from June 15, 2026 through August 6, 2026, showed no recorded violations, but the records do not say whether they were formal follow-ups.
