Celebrating Education Support Professional Day at Evendale Elementary
At Evendale Elementary, learning happens because an entire community works together—and today, on Education Support Professional (ESP) Day, we proudly honor the dedicated individuals who support our students every step of the way. From the moment children board the school bus in the morning until the lights are turned off at the end of the day, our education support professionals keep Evendale safe, welcoming, and thriving.
Our Bus Drivers: Setting the Tone for the Day
Evendale’s bus drivers are the first friendly faces many students see each morning. They navigate busy streets with skill, ensure safe travel in all kinds of weather, and greet each rider with patience and positivity. Their commitment helps students arrive ready to learn and return home safely every day.
Our Lunchroom Team: Nourishing Students With Care
In the cafeteria, Evendale’s lunchroom staff work tirelessly to prepare healthy meals and create a warm, supportive environment. They know our students by name, offer encouragement, and make sure every child is nourished and cared for. Their kindness fills more than trays—it fills hearts.
Our Paraprofessionals: Providing Essential Learning Support
Evendale’s paraprofessionals are invaluable partners in learning. They work closely with teachers, provide individualized support, and help students overcome challenges academically, socially, and emotionally. Whether guiding small groups or assisting students one-on-one, they ensure every child has the tools they need to succeed.
Our Office Staff and Secretaries: Keeping Evendale Running Smoothly
The school secretaries and office team are the backbone of Evendale Elementary’s daily operations. They greet families, assist staff, manage communication, and handle countless tasks that make the school day run seamlessly. Their organization and compassion help create the welcoming environment Evendale is known for.
Our Custodians and Janitors: Caring for Every Corner of Our School
Evendale’s custodial team works early mornings, evenings, and everything in between to keep our school clean, safe, and ready for learning. From preparing classrooms to maintaining playgrounds, their efforts ensure students have a healthy environment where they can grow and explore.
Our Nurses: Protecting Health and Providing Comfort
Evendale’s school nurse cares for the health and well-being of every student who walks through the clinic doors. They manage chronic conditions, respond to sudden illnesses or injuries, support mental and emotional health, and keep families informed. Their calm presence and medical expertise create a safe space where students feel comforted and cared for. They are essential to keeping our school community healthy.
Evendale Elementary Is Strong Because of You
Education Support Professional Day reminds us that Evendale Elementary is more than a school—it’s a family. Our bus drivers, lunchroom workers, paraprofessionals, secretaries, custodians, and nurses are the heartbeat of our building. Their care, expertise, and dedication shape the experiences of every child who walks through our doors.
To all our education support professionals at Evendale Elementary: thank you for the vital work you do. Today and every day, we appreciate you.
