                students; and

WHEREAS:        Custodial staff work behind the scenes and are often unappreciated for the hard work
                that they do, day after day, keeping schools and all our facilities clean and well maintained; and

WHEREAS:        Custodial staff are the backbone of DCSD and are an essential part of the success of the
                district; and

                contribution and commitment to the district; and

WHEREAS:        Custodial staff represents the best traits of the employees of the DeKalb County School
                District.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the DeKalb County Board of Education proclaims October 2, 2023, to
be National Custodial Workers Recognition day; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the DeKalb County Board of Education strongly encourages all members of our
community to join in recognizing and expressing gratitude toward our custodial staff.
