Wednesday, October 2, is National Custodial Workers’ Recognition Day, a day on which we take an extra moment to recognize and show appreciation to our custodians, assistant custodians and maintenance staff who work tirelessly each day to ensure the smooth operation of our schools, classrooms and learning facilities.

These hard-working individuals not only keep our sites clean, safe and well-maintained but enrich their schools and workplaces with their dedication and enthusiasm.

Director of Education John Bryant wants to make special note of the important role these staff members make in helping the WRDSB reach our goals every day.

“You are the stewards of our physical spaces and facilities. Without your dedication, hard work and attention to detail, our schools and classrooms would be less welcoming. Each of you brings unique expertise, skill and talents that contribute to the creation of safe, clean and welcoming learning spaces for our students – each and every one.”

On National Custodial Workers’ Recognition Day, the Waterloo Region District School Board would like to extend a sincere thank you to our dedicated custodians, assistant custodians and maintenance workers for their outstanding commitment and service to their school communities and most importantly – our students.
