🧹🔥 Brandon & Sherman — The Real Ones Behind the Shine at Selfridge 🔥🧼
Happy Custodian Day, Chieftain Style!
In a school like ours — where every face is familiar and every hallway tells a story —
you two keep it clean, keep it running, and keep it proud.
From mopping up the Monday chaos to keeping those orange-and-black colors looking sharp,
you’re not just custodians — you’re part of what makes Selfridge strong.💪
You hold it down when no one’s looking.
You fix it, clean it, and make sure the pride in our school shows from floor to ceiling.
We see it — and we see you.
Thanks for everything you do to keep this place not just standing, but shining.
🧡🖤 Chieftain Proud. Custodian Strong.🖤🧡
Enjoy your day and your new Black and Orange shirt — you’ve more than earned it. 🙌

**Gotta give credit where credit is due… a couple of my seniors (with help from their instructor!) GOT ME.**
Yesterday, I was chatting with their instructor while they were unpacking materials for their senior seminar course. Of course, there was bubble wrap in the packaging—and naturally, they started popping it. I asked them (nicely!) to stop popping the bubbles.
I left the room *fully expecting* they’d try something. When I got back to my office, I thoroughly checked the room for their senior prank. Nothing. All clear.
…Until I sat down and rolled toward my desk.
They had wrapped the **wheels of my chair** in bubble wrap. 🤦♂️💥
Well played. They got me. 😄
