🔧🏫✨ Today is National Custodian & Maintenance Appreciation Day! ✨🏫🔧 Let’s take a moment to recognize and celebrate the incredible custodians and maintenance staff who work tirelessly to keep our school running smoothly. From early mornings to late nights, they ensure our buildings are safe, clean, and welcoming for students, staff, and visitors. They fix what’s broken, clean what’s messy, and do it all with a smile — often without us even realizing the hard work that goes on behind the scenes. 💪💙 If you see a custodian or maintenance worker today, be sure to give them a big “Thank You!” or leave a note of appreciation. It’s the perfect opportunity to show them how much we value their dedication and care. Thank you for making our school a better place to learn and grow! 🏫❤️ #CustodianAppreciation #MaintenanceHeroes #ThankYou
