Micro Grant Provided by Western Coffee Company - West, 3rd Grade

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.

 

Mrs. Parker, 3rd Grade Teacher at West Elementary, took advantage of the micro grant to purchase decodable chapter books to be used in her classroom. These great resources allow students to practice important skills in reading while still enjoying chapter books with interesting and rich plot lines!
