A school's grounds provide not only its "curb appeal" but also safety and a sense of order. Do your groundskeepers have the tools and resources they need to do their jobs?

NO! Our school grounds are disgraceful! I am certain that they do not have tools and resouces to do thier jobs effectively or at all. We are still struggling with no soap in the girls bathroom and mold and mildew let alone curb with appeal or safety. If we, Americans, do not start to put kids first, we will all continue to suffer the consequences!
Claudia Campa, Yonkers Federation of Teachers, NY

We have everything we need to do our jobs--thanks for thinking of the Custodians!
Barbara Wright, AFT Local 604, IL

Currently our grounds are being well kept, but cuts are going to take a toll.
