Plenty of PB's from the conference track meet, including a couple school records. Well done track and field athletes.
Parents: Please remember that there is no early dismissal or after school club in May. Wednesdays will be a full day for the rest of the school year. Thank you!
Thayer Central Spanish 2 and 3 students went to 3 Compadres to complete a project for their classes. Their task was to order their foods and drinks in Spanish. It was fun to see them use the Spanish they are learning in a real world situation!
👀 When financial aid falls short… what to do next!
You open your financial aid offer…and the numbers don’t quite add up. Now what? Good news: this is more common than you think, and there are options to help.⤵️
💸 Know your gap. Review your total cost of attendance (tuition, housing, food, fees, etc.) and compare it to your financial aid offer to see what’s left to cover.
📊 Consider the full cost. Look beyond tuition and review your full cost of attendance. Some expenses, like personal and transportation costs, are estimates.
💼 Earn while you learn. A work-study or part-time job can help you cover day-to-day expenses while gaining valuable experience during the school year.
🏦 Explore payment options. Many colleges offer payment plans that break costs into smaller, more manageable monthly payments rather than a single large bill.
🏠 Find ways to save. Living at home or off campus can reduce your overall cost.
🎓 Borrow carefully. If you need loans, be intentional. Only borrow what you truly need and think about what repayment will look like after graduation.
Paying for college requires thoughtful planning, but you don’t have to make every decision at once. Focus on your options and choose what works best for your future.

10/11 meteorologist Carmelo Lattuca came to Thayer Central today to talk with the Kindergarten and 6th grade classes about weather! Both classes learned about different types of weather earlier this month, and we got to learn more today! We even got to take a look at the 10/11 weather shield vehicle that gets driven around to track storms! The best part of the day was when we found out that we were going to be featured on the news!!! Be sure to tune into 10/11 at 4:00 this afternoon to see us!! ⛅☀️🌩️
