Description
I am submitting a follow-up complaint regarding the ongoing rodent infestation at the Curley K-8 School. While an inspection was conducted last week and a reinspection is scheduled for 7/21, conditions inside the building have not improved. In fact, the mouse activity appears to be worsening. Mice are continuing to run through hallways and classrooms during the school day while students are actively receiving instruction. Staff and students are observing mice in learning spaces on a daily basis. This is not limited to evidence of rodent activity—live mice are frequently visible during instructional time. The students currently attending ESY are students with disabilities who receive special education services under IEPs. The presence of mice in classrooms is causing significant disruptions to learning, attention, emotional regulation, and participation. Instruction is regularly interrupted when mice appear, and students are becoming distressed, distracted, and unable to focus on educational activities. This situation is also affecting staff. Teachers, therapists, paraprofessionals, and other school personnel are expected to work in an environment where rodents are visibly running through classrooms and common areas. This is unacceptable and creates ongoing concerns regarding health, sanitation, and workplace safety. At this point, the conditions are absurd. No student or staff member should be expected to learn or work in a building with an active rodent infestation. Students with disabilities deserve a safe, sanitary, and minimally distracting educational environment, and staff deserve a work<truncated>
