USD 470 is proud to recognize our September “Top DAWGS,” a group of dedicated staff members who go above and beyond to support our students, colleagues, and community. Nominated by their peers, Marie Austin, Elizabeth Bedolla, Kasie Bogart, and Rebekah Whitley each make a unique impact on the USD 470 family. To celebrate, they received a surprise visit with balloons, a tumbler, and a Steamy Joe coffee gift card. We are grateful for their passion and commitment, which help make our schools a place where students thrive.
