NEISD students help campus' unsung heroes

The Roosevelt High School JROTC Rough Rider Battalion recently assisted Roosevelt’s unsung heroes with campus cleanup. Cadets from every company worked together to collect trash across the campus, supporting the custodians who work tirelessly behind the scenes, day and night, to ensure the students and staff have a clean learning environment.

“Our school couldn’t operate without the custodians,” said Cadet Captain Kirsten Scott. “It’s important that we assist them; however we can. Whether it’s spending the afternoon at a campus cleanup or simply picking up after yourself when you leave a space. I hope this can have a ripple effect and inspire more students to do their part in keeping our schools clean and showing support for custodians.”

Cadets were proud to volunteer, filling dozens of trash bags by the end of the cleanup. Serving and giving back to the school and community is at the core of JROTC. This service opportunity gave the cadets a greater appreciation and gratitude for the selfless men and women responsible for maintaining the campus.

Thank you to all NEISD custodial staff for everything you do. You are vital to the education of every student.
