  • To be honest, I’m pretty worried about the environment at Dodge Renaissance. The chronic absenteeism is over 40%, which is a huge red flag—it feels like kids are constantly out sick or just not showing up, and the school doesn’t seem to have a handle on it. The communication about illnesses going around the classrooms is basically non-existent, so you’re always playing guessing games when your kid comes home with a cough. Plus, with the student-teacher ratios being what they are in CPS right now, I don't feel like the staff has the time to really monitor if the kids are even washing their hands properly or if the desks are being wiped down. It just feels disorganized and not the healthiest place for my little one right now.
