The Custodial In-Service and Awards Luncheon is a yearly event held in June to recognize the excellent work of Jackson Public Schools Facilities employees. The guest speaker was Rev. Trollars Moore, pastor of Jackson Street Missionary Baptist Church and Director of Retention and Compliance for College of Liberal Arts at Jackson State University.
"It’s the small moments when you are in charge that matter," said Rev. Moore. "Work ethic isn’t when your boss tells you they need something done. It’s not when you have a due date to get something done. It’s about doing the work when no one is watching."
Employees enjoyed lunch, fellowship, door prizes and awards during the program, held to celebrate their commitment and dedication to building stronger schools. Zone foremen Ella Pepper, Tracey Edwards, Sandra Irvin, and James Brown presented awards to the honorees. Awards were presented for Years of Service. A special award was presented to Earnest Tyler for 45 years of service.
Superintendent Dr. Cedrick Gray congratulated and commended these employees on another successful school year via video presentation.
