  • Tbh, I’m pretty worried about the health situation at Faraday lately. My biggest issue is the attendance and the general vibe around kids being out—chronic absenteeism is super high here, and it makes you wonder how much of that is just kids constantly getting sick and passing it around the classrooms. The school is in an older building and they’ve been having to do a lot of emergency repairs on things like the boiler and thermal motors recently, which makes the air and heating feel really inconsistent.
