Most serious
Missouri DESE Office of Childhood does not publish a severity level for a citation, so there is no most-serious to name.

Missouri DESE marks every rule section of an inspection Compliance, Violation or Not Observed, and for each violation publishes the inspector’s observation, the rule quoted in full, the correction required and a deadline. A complaint investigation is published where the state substantiated a rule violation, with its disposition.

Shortlist replaces people’s names in the state’s text with initials. This is done by rule, not by hand, so it can miss a name or shorten a word that isn’t one. The state’s report, linked on each row, has the original.

Openings, child care subsidies, cost, hours and late pickup, teaching approach, ratios and staff, a typical day, and sick and biting policies aren’t on this page.
