In this episode of Public School Podcast, Sara Hornick and Bobbi Schaefbauer sit down with a true local legend, Pinedale Elementary’s beloved custodian, Shane Cox. Known for his giant leaf piles and even bigger heart, Shane shares how a simple rake and a smile can make school feel like home. From early morning snow shoveling to surprise leaf-jumping parties, his care for students and staff goes far beyond cleaning. He’s building a community, one high five at a time.

Laugh along as Sara and Bobbi uncover Shane’s funniest “you’ll see it” story, his favorite cafeteria meal (spoiler: it’s square pizza), and his mission to make every child excited to come to school. It’s a genuine, feel-good episode that celebrates the everyday heroes who keep our schools shining inside and out.
