Little Chute Area School District

Our curriculum is based on the Wisconsin School Counseling and the American School Counseling Association Standards. Our Elementary school is served by a school counselor; the program is preventative in nature. The Intermediate/Middle and High Schools are also served by counselors who work with students, parents, and other support staff to serve the developmental needs of our students.

Tracy Sievert-Schmidt

Intermediate & Middle School Counselor

Hello, My name is Tracy Schmidt and I've been the school counselor at LCIMS since 2003. Every day is different and definitely an adventure at the middle school. I have many responsibilities as the school school counselor including:

meeting with students individually and in small groups to discuss students' concerns
teaching a 5th grade guidance class to develop our students' social and emotional needs
providing developmental guidance in the classrooms monthly
meeting individually with each 8th grader and their parents to discuss their individualized academic and career (ACP) plans to prepare them for their future.
Advisor for Builders Club and the RIPPLE Student Leadership Team
assisting with CAMP (adult mentoring program) and Mustang Mentors (high school mentoring program)

I'm originally from Appleton and attended Fox Valley Lutheran High School. I went on to get a bachelors degree from UW-Platteville and my Masters in Counseling Education from UW-Oshkosh. I live in Greenville with my husband and 3 amazing daughters.

I played volleyball and basketball both in high school and college and continue to stay active while training for half marathons and Tough Mudder competitions. I love to read, craft, be outside, and laugh with my girls. If I'm not watching one of my daughter's sporting events, you will find me playing with our large and lazy Goldendoodle and our very energetic Labradoodle.

Lisa Gretz

High School Counselor

I am excited to work at Little Chute as the High School Counselor. I graduated with an undergraduate Psychology degree from Towson University in Maryland and a Masters in school counseling from West Chester University in Pennsylvania.

As far as my role as a school counselor, I consider myself an advocate for students and families. I work collaboratively with staff, students and families to ensure that all students have the opportunity to grow academically, emotionally and socially. I work with students individually, in small groups and in the classroom. There are no typical days as a school counselor and never a dull moment!

In my free time I enjoy traveling to new places, seeing new things and meeting new people. I love to entertain, have fun with family and friends and laugh... a lot.

My door is always open. Please feel free to stop by any time.
