001I'm Sydney Garshaw and I am the nighttime caretaker at Cedar Spring Public School. I wanted to come and work here because I attended Cedar Springs public schools for several years and it was always a fun environment. So, I thought, how can I be a part of it? When I was a senior in high school, they allowed student cleaners and that fit perfectly with my schedule. Over the summer, there happened to be a float job. I worked at all the buildings and then once the nighttime position opened up at Red Hawk, I took that. So when I first come to work, I sit down at my desk and check my email and FMX to see if there's anything that needs to be done right when I get in. Coming to work and seeing the variety of people that I see. Like when I'm in the hallways, all the little preschoolers tell me thanks for cleaning their rooms and I'll go in and I'll mop all of the hardwood floor. I love mopping. I think it's very satisfying. Mopping is just generally fun. The building holds me accountable knowing that when they come in every morning, they're going to have a clean environment. I plan on staying here and getting as much experience with working with other people and communicating with different people. And I just love it. I'm Sydney Garshaw and I'm a Red Hawk. [Music]
