What We Offer: Excellence. Success. Future Ready.

  • We Embrace CHOICE

    As a Choice District, we allow parents to select the school they want their children to attend, as long as that school has capacity and program availability.

  • Safety and Security

    Each one of our public schools has a full-time sworn law enforcement officer serving as a School Resource Officer on campus every day.

  • Outstanding Certified Educators and Staff

    Our students have highly-qualified, certified teachers who provide engaging, relevant, and rigorous instruction.

  • Rigorous Curriculum & Student Support

    We offer a rigorous curriculum and systems of support, complete with college preparatory and career and technical education paths to meet the needs of every student

  • Acceleration Opportunities Abound

    Students have the opportunity to take high school credit courses in middle school and to earn college/postsecondary credit at no cost to parents while still in high school.

  • State-of-the-Art-Career Training Programs

    We offer courses that allow students to explore career interests, master workplace competencies, gain employable skills, and earn industry certifications and licensing upon graduation

Testimonials

Annalise

Science Program

“One of my teachers one year suggested a science program. That's how I get A’s in my science classes now. They gave me videos to watch and homework and all these things to help boost my grades and get me into a good middle school.”

Amanda

“Once we got here, we found what really makes Thacker special is its sense of community. The staff are very welcoming, and they truly make an effort to involve families. Choosing Thacker has been the right decision for our family. And for any parent considering School Choice, I’d encourage you to take a look. You might find, like we did, that Thacker is the perfect fit for your family."

Derek

“I love Thacker Elementary because of all the flexibility and care they have shown for me being gifted. They were able to help me with doing middle school math. I'm doing statistics and I'm about to complete seventh grade math. I'm learning every day, and I'm learning a lot too.”

Kendrick

Safety Patrol

“I really like going here because all my friends and the teacher teach me a lot of things, and I really like learning. I like being a safety patrol because I'm able to help my classmates and teachers. We get to open the cars, we get to raise the flags, we get to help a lot of people, and I like helping people.”

Rebecca

“I love Thacker Elementary because they have all the supportive teachers I need and all the friends that I need to help comprehend the stuff I need to. The teachers give us visuals on stuff that we’re going to learn, and they help us when we are stuck on a difficult question.”

Valentina

“I love Thacker Elementary because it helps me learn more and it just increases my reading a lot. I feel smart. I really love reading because I get to read a lot of books in my classroom and it helps me relax.”
