After spending almost all my life in this school, I can say that the people were the best parts. The worst parts were just some small issues that came down to personal gripes rather than wide-ranging issues.

I graduated from THA! Loved being a part of a small school. My teachers knew my name and were always willing to help. I was taught many valuable lessons at THA, in academics, sports and lift.

Overall, I feel like I have received a good education from Thomas Heyward. It just feels like they definitely favor sports over academics. There are many students who thrived academically that do not always receive as much recognition for it the way those that are athletically gifted do.

Overall it was a terrible experience. From admin to parents, no one takes academics seriously. Parents push teachers around and force them to do what they want instead of what the teacher thinks is best. Parents are not involved unless it has to do something with athletics. School is severely behind...
