Quiet Hero of Westfield School

The school’s night crew works when the halls are empty, and their hard work has just been celebrated. Francesco Dori, who helps keep Westfield High tidy after the last class, was chosen for a special fellowship at the district’s 2026 awards. The award, backed by the local Rotary Club, is given to non‑certified staff who have served for five years or more and make a real difference. Dori’s reputation spreads through the building: he is reliable, leads his team well, and always offers a hand.The principal praised him for being a model of dedication, showing that he cares about every detail and looks after the team. Teachers noted how Dori goes beyond the call of duty, making staff feel respected and supported. He also trains new night workers, passing on his knowledge and habits. During the ceremony he thanked his colleagues and leaders, stressing how a clean, safe school helps everyone succeed. The honor shines a light on the often unseen work that keeps schools running smoothly.
