A primary goal of TSA is to assist each student in maximum growth toward independence in thought and action.  \nExpectations are high, and the calling to be one’s best is very real.  \nCORE VALUES  \nThomas Sumter Academy’s motto,“Acta Non Verba,” is the foundation for every student, faculty and staff member. Action Not Words is paramount. Maintaining high academic standards through research based effective and collaborative learning is also very important as we build our core values.
