Education workers include caretakers, office staff, education assistants and lunchroom supervisors – all of whom play important roles in ensuring our children’s schools are safe, healthy, and well-maintained:
- They clean washrooms, door handles, water fountains, lunchrooms, desks, floors, stairs
- They conduct much of the operational maintenance in schools
- They conduct safe water checks for our children’s drinking water
- They run safe arrival programs
- They provide supervision and support for students with special needs
- They provide educational support in full-day kindergarten classrooms
- They supervise our children during lunch
Just to name a few of the important things education workers do in our children’s schools. Next time you see an education worker, please say thank you!
