No matter what the weather, the students arrived at school safely. Though we probably didn't realize it, our halls were spotless and ready for another day of muddy feet ond the unavoidable scuffing. We owe this task to the very capable janitors who keep the school environment refreshing and who provide us with a bit of wit.
