  • Decatur is known for its academics, but honestly, the building itself is showing some age and it impacts the daily vibe. I’ve seen some stuff in the recent board agendas about water tank issues and ongoing turf damage on the grounds, which makes me worry about how quickly they’re actually fixing things that affect the kids' physical environment. Like, if the water pressure is off or the play area is messed up, is it getting prioritized? Communication about illnesses is pretty standard for CPS, but it doesn't feel like they go above and beyond for wellness culture. It's an okay environment, but definitely feels like the focus is more on the books than the facilities.
