Thayer Central Community Schools

Congratulations to the Thayer Central Speech Team on another successful season! Though State Speech left some wanting more, it's no small achievement that we had 6 of our awesome speakers competing at the state level. We are proud of you! Thank you to all of our speech family and friends for your support at Kearney and throughout the season. Finally, thank you to Coach Brumond, Coach Wright, and our entire TC Speech Team for your hard work and dedication these last 4 months. Yay Speech and Go Titans! (Not pictured= Riley and Deklann both competing in Entertainment Speaking)

The Thayer Central Music Department would like to share some highlights from our trip with you! This past Friday-Monday we travelled down to Dallas, TX and were able to do a bunch of sightseeing, learning, and music making! Medieval Times, the Fort Worth Stockyards, Rodeo, AT&T Stadium, the Blue Man Group, Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum, and the Skyline View GeoDeck were all part of our fun-filled four days! Buc-ees, though not in the official timeline, was another fan favorite. We'd like to thank the directors from Texas Wesleyan University for working with our students and helping us prepare for District Music. Thank you also to our trip sponsors Melany Winans, Wendy Helfrich, Tami Logsdon, Mr. Miller, Mrs. VanderSchaaf, and Ms. Wright! You are what make the trip possible!

Congrats to Ceres Lemke-Koch, Eli VanderSchaaf, Addysen Cast, Jacob Mostek, and Easton Moore for auditioning and being selected to the Meridian JH Honor Band and Choir. Eli was selected to play trombone in the band and Ceres, Addysen, Jacob, and Easton were selected for the choir. On Friday, March 27th, the students worked with choir clinician Kevin Boesiger and band clinician Lori Falcone and put on a concert that evening. We're proud of these TC musicians for their hard work and excellent music-making!!

It's Paraprofessional Appreciation Day.

Thayer Central Senior Career/Life Skills class learned the process of acquiring an auto loan by determining their ideal job after high school and what that monthly salary will look like. Based on their anticipated monthly income, students researched a vehicle that would fit their budget as well as a place to rent in their desired town. Tara Kuhlmann, from Western National Bank, compiled all of their information and provided a summary of their loan options as well as the cost of insurance for the vehicle. She also helped them analyze what a monthly budget would look like based on all of this information.

🧑‍🔧 The results are in for the State Ag Mechanics team! As a team they placed 26 out of 60 teams! Individually Cole placed 23, Brighton 125, Cooper 133 and Colton 152 out of 240! Great job boys!🔧 💡
