Lima Central Catholic’s 11th Annual One Day of Giving is coming up on Tuesday, November 4th! This year, you have the chance to make your impact your way:

💙 Support the Annual Fund for immediate student needs and programs
🍎 Invest in the Teacher Endowment to strengthen our future educators
🎭 Grow the Arts Endowment to inspire our next performers and creators

And don’t forget — during One Day, every gift is doubled, and during our Power Hour at noon, your gift is tripled!

Lima Central Catholic is excited to announce that Frank Kill will lead our girls basketball program. A proven leader within LCC athletics, Coach Kill’s experience and familiarity with our school community make him an excellent fit to guide the program at this time. During his time as the head boys basketball coach, he led the Thunderbirds to two state championships and a state runner-up finish. Under his leadership, Lima Central Catholic is confident in his ability to help lay a strong foundation as the program continues to grow and build for the future.
An official press release will be released tomorrow.

Attention T-Bird Fans! Join Monday October 6th at Frickers! We will be supporting our Cross Country Team by having a portion of each bill donated back to the Cross Country program!

✨ Keeping the Standard: Soar in Faith, Learn in Love, Grow Together ✨

📅 Tuesday, October 14
🕕 6:00 – 7:00 PM
📍 LCC Great Hall

All are invited to join us for this powerful evening of faith, learning, and community. Let’s come together as Thunderbirds to keep the standard and grow stronger in spirit and love. 💙

The Conceptual Math class had the opportunity to attend the Superior Financial Day once again this year. The students spent the week before preparing by going through lessons about factors affecting income, deductions from income, compound interest of savings, and much more. While at the event, students learned how to pick the right college, how to handle credit cards, the benefits of compound interest, and participated in a Real Money Real World simulation.

Wishing the best of luck to Girls Tennis today! They are competing in the Sectional Tournament at UNOH!

🌟 Celebrating Our October Top T-Birds! 🌟

Each month, Lima Central Catholic honors students and a staff member who live out the heart of our mission: leading with faith, showing kindness, caring for others, and striving for excellence in all they do.

This is our second Top T-Bird recognition of the year, and we are thrilled to celebrate:
💙 Lakayla Scott
💙 Olivia Venturella
💙 Emily Blankemeyer
💙 Bonnie Brunelle

Our students receive a dress-down pass and 50 Thunder Games points, and our staff member receives a gift card to a local business—just a small token of our gratitude for the big impact they make.

Join us in congratulating these outstanding members of our LCC family! 🎉
