Custodial Services

The mission of Custodial Services is to use our skills, knowledge, and leadership to promote a safe, clean, and healthy learning environment for all users of Seminole County Public Schools.

People are our most important asset; knowledge is their most important tool. We strive to empower each custodian as all contribute to the success of our mission. We encourage professional development through training and education. We treat all people with dignity, courtesy, and respect.

The District's Custodial Staff is a decentralized system. Each Campus has between four and twenty custodians that report directly to the campus administration. Custodial Services provides district-wide support to ensure all schools have the custodial staff, resources, and skills necessary to maintain a clean, healthy, and safe environment at all times.
