Today is National Custodian Recognition Day! Let’s show appreciation to the men and women who keep our school running smoothly. Custodial workers operate behind the scenes and are often under-appreciated for the hard work they do day-after-day keeping the school clean and well maintained. While delivering outstanding services and running a well-maintained operation, they contribute to important first impressions and the success of BMMS! Thank you!!
