2. 2

   Transportation to and from the program

   Ask whether the program arranges pickup and drop-off, which areas of Hidalgo County are covered, and what the cost or eligibility requirements are.

3. 3

   Staffing ratios on a full day

   Ask how many staff are on the floor when enrollment is at or near the 125-person licensed capacity, and what training those staff hold.
