Bruce Brady – The Heart And Soul Of Bismarck High School

"I am the eyes and ears of this institution..."

How many of us remember that famous line from the movie The Breakfast Club  - Carl the janitor relayed that little bit of information to all of us on the big screen, I wondered to myself what the difference is between a school janitor and a custodian. I know from experience how valuable a custodian is  - my dad was an elementary school principal for over 30 years, I specifically remember in great detail just how much he depended on this person. There is a custodian here in Bismarck who is "The Heart And Soul" of Bismarck High School.

Bruce Brady is a textbook example of a perfect custodian

By the way, indeed.com says "The difference between janitor and custodian positions is that a custodian's job is more consistent and overarching than that of a janitor. While a janitor reports for shift work at a specific time to clean designated areas, a custodian’s job description entails the general upkeep of a property or facility"  Bruce Brady has been at Bismarck High for over 5 years, and the whole staff and the students are lucky to have him.

His positive attitude has brought him the wonderful privilege...

...of being named  Bismarck Schools Custodian of the Year. I love this, according to kfyrtv.com Brady absolutely "loves being around the kids. When I was first hired, I was told that this is my house - I take that whole heart and soul to make this a home, and make it welcoming, and safe for everybody that comes to it,” Nothing like having a rock-star custodian that loves his job - Congratulations Bruce!
