Tennant Reveals Second Round of Finalists in Custodians Are Key Contest

February 21, 2023 Tennant Reveals Second Round of Finalists in Custodians Are Key Contest

Tennant Co. has announced the second round of three finalists for its fourth-annual Custodians Are Key recognition program.

First launched in September 2019, the annual program recognizes the work K–12 custodians are doing in educational facilities across the United States. Parents, teachers, and school administrators were invited to nominate custodians for their efforts to provide students with a healthy and safe educational environment. Throughout the coming months, Tennant will choose a total of 12 finalists, who will each receive a US$500 gift card. The grand prize winner will be selected in May and receives a prize valued at $5,000 while his or her school receives $10,000. This year’s finalists were chosen from a field of nearly 1,400 nominations and can be viewed on Tennant’s website.

“With this second round of finalists, we were especially touched by both the nominees and the nominators,” said Amanda Herbert, Tennant senior marketing manager. “This year, we saw a lot of nominations from within the schools—the people who work side-by-side every day. To us, that not only shows the pride they have for their school, but also demonstrates the mutual care shared by everyone within the school community. We’re humbled by the nominators’ kindness, candor, and willingness to share these incredible stories.”
