New award is designed to recognize the contributions custodians make to public health
This fall, custodians across the country are invited to participate in the inaugural National C.L.E.A.N.™ Awards program, which recognizes the contributions that they make to public health in their schools, communities and their profession. The award will be presented to a school custodian that demonstrates outstanding leadership to school cleanliness, and reflects the contributions that education support professionals (ESPs) can make to public health.
Up to five awards will be presented annually: one top recipient and four runners-up. Applicants will self-nominate (they do not have to be nominated by their state or local affiliate or administrator to apply). The award will recognize a single custodian or a team of custodians from one school. Custodians employed in a K-12 school(s) located within the U.S. are eligible.
C.L.E.A.N. Awards will be presented at the National Education Association's (NEA) National ESP Conference in Orlando, Florida in March 2009. Award packages will include an all-expense-paid trip to the NEA National ESP Conference, cash award, products/supplies for the school, one-year NEA membership, media recognition and a school celebration on National C.L.E.A.N. Day.
The award program is a joint initiative of the National Education Association (NEA), the NEA Health Information Network (NEA HIN),The Soap and Detergent Association (SDA), and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Entries must be postmarked by December 10, 2008. For additional information and application forms, visit www.cleaning101.com/awards/clean-award.cfm or contact Nancy Bock: nbock@cleaning101.com.
