Forsyth childcare center has license revoked for not reporting worker accused of abusing a child

A Forsyth County childcare center has had its childcare license revoked because of failure to report a worker accused of sexually abusing a preschooler.

The same worker is now accused of hurting several other children at a different childcare center.

Cornerstone Schools on Browns Bridge Road in Cumming serves children from infants to 12th grade.

However, the license for their early childcare center, serving infants, toddlers, and preschoolers has been revoked in a letter sent to the school this week by the Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning.

“We believe due to these circumstances that it did deserve a revocation,” Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning spokesperson Reg Griffin said.

“If there is any type of withholding information or not coming forward in a timely manner, that definitely has ramifications,” Griffin said. “Not notifying DHS is against the law and they should’ve done that.”

Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning is referring to 22-year-old Tulsi Patel.
