Custodian Appreciation Day the Brainchild of A Third Grader

Not only do adults take notice of what custodians do, but even children see it. Here's a sweet article about a third grader in Massachusetts that wanted to show her appreciation for the school custodian. She came up with the idea of a Custodian Appreciation Day and even worked with her class to help him out.  Here's the short article reprinted.

LANCASTER -- Alessandra Smith, a third grader at Mary Rowlandson Elementary, was eating her lunch while she watched the custodians clean the cafeteria. It was then that the brilliant idea of having a Custodian Appreciation Day came to her.
Alessandra formed a committee with her classmates to create a day where the hard work of the school custodians was recognized by the school.
