A Center Grove area day care will remain open, but it must meet new requirements.
The facility reached an agreement with the state, which had ordered the facility to shut down by this week.
Little Angels Daycare and Preschool at White River Baptist Church will not be shut down; but to remain open, it must meet 10 requirements outlined in a new agreement, including becoming licensed with the state.
The day care will need to develop new safety policies, have staff members go through new training courses and meet new staff-to-child ratios and supervision rules.
Last month, the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration revoked the day care’s registration and ordered it to close after determining that a man affiliated with the church who was accused of inappropriately touching a child in March 2012 was on the property.
No arrest was made in the incident because Greenwood police were unable to gather enough evidence. Police have since reopened the case after new allegations were reported.
