CVSan Holds Recognition Event for Castro Valley School Custodians

School Custodians go out of their way to help schools reduce waste. Schools in Castro Valley have high recycling and composting or “diversion” rates (average 82%) in large part due to the efforts of custodians. Castro Valley Sanitary District (CVSan) recognized school custodians during the 7th CVSan Custodian Recognition Luncheon at Canyon Middle School on Friday, June 15, 2018. All Castro Valley School Custodians and School Administration were invited.

Awards were given out to the following Custodians:

• The Dan Curry Custodian Program of the Year Award: John Rosa of Proctor Elementary.
• The Custodian Good Green Attitude Award: Brian Fitsimmons of Castro Valley High School.
• The Custodian 4Rs Educator of the Year Award: Aaron Ackerman of Castro Valley Elementary School.

More than 70 people were in attendance, including most of the Castro Valley Unified School District Custodians, Maintenance and Operations Supervisor Charlotte Irwin, Castro Valley Sanitary District Board Members Ralph Johnson and Dave Sadoff, and CVSan staff members Jordan Figueiredo and Cole Caceres. Castro Valley Unified School Board members Jo Ann Loss, Gary Howard, and Monica Lee were also in attendance, along with CVUSD Superintendent Parvin Ahmadi
