Custodians, Mechanics, and Many More Take on Monumental Task of Snow Removal at Schools and Offices

Mother Nature gave us mountains of snow and it has been the monumental task of so many dedicated employees to clear sidewalks, parking lots, playgrounds and more.

Thank you to all who have helped in the snow removal process; custodians, mechanics, sweepers, principals, and other staff members. We appreciate all of you, and are so grateful for the enormous time and effort made to make sure the areas in and around our schools and buildings are cleared for students, teachers, and staff.
