## Purpose and Scope
Prepare and review a bi-weekly childcare scorecard covering operational and financial indicators, including attendance, staffing/ratios, and CACFP expenses.
**Frequency:** Every other Monday, or the client’s approved reporting cadence.
## Procedure
1. Open the reporting period covering the prior two weeks.
2. Extract relevant operational data from Playground, including attendance, staffing, ratios, and other requested indicators.
3. Obtain the matching CACFP expense/meal-count report from the designated client contact or approved source in KidKare.
4. Verify that both data sets cover the same dates and are complete. Flag missing, duplicate, or inconsistent values before entering them.
5. Enter the data into the approved Childcare Scorecard spreadsheet/template.
6. Review formulas, totals, formatting, and any highlights or concerns. Correct source data or mark an item for client clarification rather than guessing.
7. Notify Ms. Erica of the scorecard status and include a concise summary of material highlights, concerns, and pending actions.
8. Save the completed scorecard in the approved shared location and update the task tracker.
