National Custodian Appreciation Day, 2023

Celebrate National Custodian Appreciation Day October 2, 2023

Cleaning workers are the invisible heroes who keep our schools productive and safe. Why are cleaning workers so important?

Research regularly shows that clean buildings are not only linked to better health but also better educational outcomes. Absenteeism is lower and test scores are higher in clean schools.

Provo City School District employs over 180 people who facilitate healthy, clean, safe, and comfortable learning environments for our teachers and students. In honor of National Custodian Day, let’s take a moment to say thank you. If you see a janitor in the buildings where you work or visit, take a moment to let you know you see them. Let them know how much you appreciate what they do.

To our amazing custodial teams, thank you.
