Honestly, I’m pretty frustrated with how things are going at Dever. My kid’s class is consistently packed, and with the student-to-teacher ratios where they are, it feels like a total germ factory. When one kid gets a sniffle, the whole room is down a week later. I also noticed in the recent board agendas that they're having to request emergency funding just to fix basic stuff like faulty lighting contactors—it makes me wonder what else is being deferred or ignored in the building maintenance. The communication about illnesses is pretty 'whatever,' and I rarely feel like the rooms are actually getting deep-cleaned. It’s hard to prioritize 'wellness' when the school feels stretched so thin just trying to keep the lights on and the kids in their seats.
