Make sure to get over to the student store and pick up some Dippin Dots, Rice Krispie Treats or a Gatorade while you can! We are over next to the theater and would love to see you! THEY WORK WHILE WE SLEEP. Sometimes we walk around them in the halls not always “seeing” them or seeing their work as important. That’s why we love this day, National Custodian Day, which rolls around every October 2nd. It recognizes the hard work that our custodians do to make sure we have schools and workplaces that are spotless and sanitary. Custodians are our “first line of defense” of the “war on germs” and often, it’s a thankless task. So, on National Custodian Day, show your appreciation to the custodians who clean our school. As far we’re concerned, custodians are some of the hardest-working people in this building! THANK YOU TO OUR CUSTODIANS!!! AUDITIONS!
