Food Service

• The Food Service Department provided the Food Service Board Report to highlight some of this year's accomplishments.

Transportation

During the 2016-2017 school year, Turner transportation began transporting the JAG program to various job sites in the metropolitan area. In all, there were nearly 20 different field trips for students to see firsthand what life after high school will be like in the work force.

Turner Transportation also took seniors to Kansas University, Kansas State University, Pittsburg State University, Wichita State University, Baker University, Avila University and several other colleges to tour and decided in they would want to attend. This is significant because a lot of students would not have the opportunity to visit these schools to help make their choice.

Turner Transportation is proud to partner with these programs to help students transition from high school to college or the work force.
