With the opening of Building 10, the need for custodial work increased.
The new building has five custodians working. About 25 to 30 custodians work the entire campus. A few custodians clean throughout the day, and others clean at night.
They said the best thing about working here is keeping everything clean for the students and teachers.. They also said that the most difficult thing is seeing destruction of the work they did.
“The best part about this job is the people I work with and I never know what to expect coming into work every day,” Sherri Chudy said.
Custodians ask students and faculty to keep the classrooms and the bathrooms clean. Custodian Stan Brooks said all the custodians do everything they can to keep everything clean. The student body needs to help make the custodian’s job easier by taking care of the school property.
“We can’t clean on our own. The students and teachers have to help us and they should not be destructive, just like if they were at home,” Brooks said.
The custodian’s said they take pride in this school because they are proud of how they clean. Brooks said they want to keep the school as clean as possible. He also said he loves working to keep the school clean.
“You always want to put in a good day’s work; when I leave here at night, I always feel good because I gave the school a good eight hours of work, so I take pride in that,” Brooks said. “The kids should take pride in the school because it’s a beautiful school.”
