The Siegrist Star
Week of September 20, 2021
Hello Siegrist Families!!
In the Platte County School District, elementary counselors spend time teaching a variety of classroom lessons. Dr. Lori Mann serves as our school counselor at Siegrist. As we transition back to school, the focus during our September and October counseling lesson is on skills necessary for academic success both in and outside of the classroom and getting reacquainted. To support our learning, discuss the following with your child(ren):
Share two skills necessary for school success.
As a family, identify a stressful time and develop a routine for success.
Thank you for your partnership as we work to support your student.
Best,
Mrs. Johna-Kaye Sutton

Platte County Education Foundation Fundraiser - September 8 -September 20
This week, we kicked off our Platte County Education Foundation discount card sales program. Our schools, in conjunction with Major Saver, work with businesses throughout our District to offer a $15 discount card providing customers with 21 local buy-one-get-one-free offers. In most cases, redeeming only two offers offsets the cost of the card. Proceeds from the card campaign directly benefit your student's school and the Platte County Education Foundation. The Foundation gives back to the Platte County R-3 community by awarding annual pre-K through 12th grade classroom and building site grants, as well as senior scholarships. Check out this video to see some of the impact our Foundation has had. Your student should have brought home an envelope with information and instructions on Wednesday, September 8, and have been instructed to not go "door-to-door," but to offer to relatives, friends, co-workers, etc. Collection dates start on Monday, September 13, and the program wraps up on Monday, September 20. Please consider purchasing a card and supporting our schools!
