What we do ...

Without us the doors wouldn't open. The bells wouldn't ring. Classrooms wouldn't be clean and well maintained. Special students would miss the one-on-one support. The phones wouldn't be answered. The lights wouldn't go on. The paychecks wouldn't be issued. Students would go without lunch. Public schools run because of the work we do.
