Cafeteria And Custodial Staffs Shared . Mrs. Brandon prepares herself a hamburger for her lunch. Mr. Parks and Mr. Smith buy lunches from Mrs. Walsh, cafeteria manager. Although many students didn’t realize it, the jobs of the cooks and custodians were as important as those of anybody in the school. The cooks had to prepare for the faculty and students well-balanced meals. They also provided refreshments for activities such as PTA meetings. The jobs of the custodians didn’t end at 3:00, they carried on, often into the night. They had to keep the school clean and had to provide proper maintenance. The custodians also had to keep the school grounds, landscaping them to improve the total look of Pem- broke. Mrs. Walton prepares a salad for the students’ lunch. The cooks relax and eat their lunches before the students are let out of class. 14
