The before hook at the top level will execute for all test contexts, but school_id is defined using let which is lazily evaluated. This can cause issues with RSpec's evaluation order. Consider using let! for school_id to ensure it's evaluated before the before hook, or move the stub_const into individual test contexts where school_id is actually used.

The hardcoded UUIDs for creator_id and teacher_id do not match the actual TEST_USERS values from SeedsHelper (which uses 583ba872-b16e-46e1-9f7d-df89d267550d for jane_doe and bbb9b8fd-f357-4238-983d-6f87b99bdbb2 for john_doe). Consider using the actual SeedsHelper::TEST_USERS values or documenting why different UUIDs are being used for testing.

Does this mean these values weren't getting picked up before?

they were getting picked up, but state was bleeding between tests

not sure I understand how this fixes the bleed in that case 🤔

Why is this no longer needed? Or was it never needed?

it shouldn't have been needed, given DatabaseCleaner cleans the db between runs...but I think the concurrency was the prob...using unique ids fixes that
