This article is brought to you by Bona®. Learn how your school custodian could win big in the Celebrate Your Custodian contest. Three lucky schools will win! Deadline to nominate is Nov. 7, 2017.


School custodians rock! Whether they turn a blind eye to all that glitter you may have dropped (ahem) at Family Arts & Crafts Night or know all your kids’ fave video games, snacks, and playground crushes, they’re pretty much the hidden Heroes of the Halls who know how to lift spirits, clean up messes, and then some. That’s why we’re excited about the first-ever Celebrate Your Custodian contest from Bona—it’s your chance to highlight what makes your school custodian so amazing!

Simply nominate your custodian by Nov. 7 by sharing what makes him or her shine for a chance to win a $200 gift card (plus up to $200 for support staff) and a Bona SuperCourt® Athletic Floor Care prize package (value $625) for Green Seal-certified, safe cleaning of your school’s floors. The only entry requirement is that your school has hardwood floors—oh, and an amazing custodian worth shouting about!

Then, encourage parents at your school to vote between Nov. 8 and Nov. 12. Three schools will win. Winners will be announced by Nov. 17. To encourage parents to vote for your custodian, share our “thankful for our school custodian” graphic (click below to download) on your group or school Facebook page Nov. 8-12 along with this customizable text:
