West is Best
Message from Mr. Pace
Over the last month, the custodial staff has been short 1 custodian some nights and others 2 custodians short. They realize some of your floors need some extra attention over break. They have asked that if you have a classroom with tables and chairs, if your students, before they leave tomorrow, could put the chairs on the tables the custodians will do their best to make sure your floors and rooms are their best on your return. If you have a recycle bin in your room, please make sure it is empty before the break as well. Thanks al
