Two Weeks and Counting

Where did the summer go? Here in the Northwest it seems like summers are very short. And when you are cleaning a school it's even shorter.
In just two weeks, the entire High School has to have all of the cleaning complete. That's floors, carpets, general cleaning (walls, whiteboards, windows, counters, etc.), and other items that would interfere with teachers, students and parents who begin returning for any number of items on August 16.
In reality, every summer, we only have about eight weeks to do everything required in the school to be ready for the next ten months of usage. After that it's just trying to keep up with the daily demand of requests and maintenance that occur regularly.
The crew has done an awesome job in getting the building prepared. It always seems like it will never get finished when we start in June, but then by August 1st there's light at the end of the tunnel.
So, in the next few weeks, there will be busy bees flying around the school preparing for the return of those eager to learn and those not so eager. Either way, school is approaching quickly.
