Honestly, the health situation at Perkins Bass is pretty rough. The chronic absenteeism is super high—it feels like half the kids are out sick or just gone half the time, and it makes me wonder how much the school is actually doing to keep the environment healthy. I've noticed issues with the building maintenance too; there are always work orders for things like old motors and belts in the HVAC system, which makes me worry about the air quality and ventilation in the classrooms. It’s hard to feel good about sending your kid to a place that feels like it's constantly playing catch-up with basic repairs and hygiene.
