Micro Grant - FFA

Posted Date: 03/10/2022

Recently, Platte County School District #1 had the honor of working with Becky Hilty and Western Coffee Co. to raise money for Platte County teachers and educational resources. The drive-up and delivery coffee company served over 500 drinks in 12 hours during the fundraiser! They went through 30 gallons of milk and raised over $6000. This money has been used to create a microgrant. Teachers have the option to apply for unique and untraditional items for their students and classrooms. See the article below for a glimpse at how this money is benefitting our #oneplatte1 family.

Thank you to the contributors of the micro grant that we received this fall. We were able to purchase our trifold boards for State FFA  Agriscience Fair! We do not yet know the results, they will be announced at State FFA Convention in April, but do know all of our students who participated are top 3 in the state in their divisions! (There were only three per division.)

Thank you!
