In modern-day society, custodians are not appreciated as much as they should be. They play key roles in schools, providing a safe and clean environment for society. To support the custodians working behind the scenes, National Custodian Day is a great day to celebrate them and all they do for school systems.

During the day, it is crucial to give appreciation to these faculty members. In a recent interview with Mrs. Wright, West Lauderdale’s custodian, she states that the hardest part of her job is “just doing it.” Students and teachers alike know that picking up trash and cleaning up makes a difference in school facilities. Mrs. Wright recommends this job to others in the community, she says “I like the school setting, the kids, and helping out.”

National Custodian Day serves as a reminder of the vital role that custodians play in maintaining clean, safe environments in schools. Custodians work behind the scenes, ensuring that daily environments are hygienic and in order, contributing to the well-being of the community. National Custodian Day is a perfect chance to be able to express gratitude for custodians, while also acknowledging their contributions.
