Students should address any school staff by title and last name whether it is the principal or janitor.

It's a regional thing like pop/soda i think. I never heard custodian as a word until we moved and I was in middle school.
@Shade70 Does the same apply for parents? Or do parenents only address certified teachers by last name?

To me it is a matter of respect. I am addressing someone in professional capacity, not as a friend.

Miss or Mrs and her last name

I have experience in this. It's proper etiquette.
@BlueRain Proper because she's an adult? Because she's a certain number of years older than the student? Because she works for the district? Because they don't know each other?

@Professional correct.
