The winter vacation is not over yet and the school is empty. Why is it still on duty 24 hours a day?

Every winter and summer vacation, the school requires janitors and teachers to be on duty 24 hours a day. Even if the school is empty, the staff on duty must stick to their posts and cannot neglect their duties. Many people have doubts. There are no valuable things in school, so why should they be so strict?

1. Protect public property.

Nowadays, some people with evil intentions even steal private bicycles, and it is inevitable that they will spread their bad ideas to the school. Although there is nothing particularly valuable, some electronic equipment, such as computers and projectors, are also worth a lot of money. There are also boarding schools. Most of the students’ belongings in the dormitories are not taken home, such as clothing, toiletries, skin care products, etc. Nowadays, children’s living conditions are better, so these are not cheap.

2. Protect campus security.

Take this year as an example, with the outbreak of pneumonia, the situation is very serious, and the campus personnel on duty have a heavy responsibility. They need to conduct temperature checks, identity verification and registration of people entering and exiting the school, and patrol the campus every 2-3 hours to prevent some unscrupulous people (such as those who are infected with the virus and want to retaliate against society) from climbing over the wall and entering. The campus environment causes pollution. And they must be disinfected every three days to ensure the hygiene and personal safety of students returning to school.

3. Communicate instructions in a timely manner.

Especially during special periods, the higher-level education department is likely to convey some document tasks at any time. The staff on duty need to organize this information into sections in a timely manner, edit it into text announcements, and feed it back to managers and teachers one by one. As well as parents and students, such as winter vacation safety education treaty, early or postponed notice of school start, etc.

It can be seen that the school's on-duty personnel have a heavy responsibility and are not as idle as everyone imagines. Especially for teachers, in addition to teaching tasks, they also have to be on duty 24 hours a day, leaving too little rest time for themselves. They deserve everyone's respect for their hard work.
