They likely could not hire a janitor.

There were five people that came in every day after school and cleaned the building. Bathrooms especially need cleaning every day. And, yes, turning off the lights were the responsibilities of every janitor. Each person had their own section and, after cleaning it, turned off the lights.

Kids shouldn't have access to stronger cleaning products. Kids doing light chores aren't going to remove the need for a cleaning crew. And your article agrees: > Japanese schools have non-teaching staff called yomushuji [...] their main job is cleaning and maintenance.
