Facility Security
After a family has successfully enrolled at First Steps Learning Academy, access codes to the facility and the selected classroom will be assigned. Parents/Guardians will sign children in/out of the facility by scanning their fingerprints into the facility management center.
Each classroom at First Steps Learning Academy has been equipped with an access code, to allow for entry into each classroom, which is only given to the parents/guardians that have children in that specific classroom.
This is to insure the safety of the children and to insure that only authorized personnel have access to the children.
