USD 470 transportation staff recently showed appreciation to Arkansas City sanitation workers with a thoughtful gift. After a young bus rider expressed excitement about the garbage truck, the team created a miniature replica of a sanitation truck (complete with mini trash bags full of treats) and coordinated a special presentation. This gesture highlights the transportation team’s commitment to building positive connections with students and the community.
