Provide a safe and supportive learning environment

 

Our Schools and Buildings

In order to provide all schools and buildings with a clean, safe, and healthy environment, the department and its staff completes daily, weekly, and monthly cleaning tasks. These tasks include management solid waste removal and management of our recycling program. Our custodial staff also performs specialty cleaning tasks and preventative maintenance and repairs on custodial equipment. 

Custodial Services employs over 340 custodians in over 50 of our schools and support buildings.

 

Our Custodians

Many of our custodians are on duty twelve months a year. When our schools are on break all summer, our custodians are cleaning, moving furniture, stripping and waxing floors, and completing maintenance projects that they are unable to complete while schools are in session. To support our valued employees, the department has a Custodial Advisory Committee (CAC) which meets monthly with representatives from our schools and support buildings.
