Congratulations to Mrs. Lori Sumner! For ten years Mrs. Sumner has taught in the Thomasville City Schools. Certified in middle school math and science, high school science, and gifted education, Mrs. Sumner is currently pursuing her Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. We are so grateful for her willingness to serve and go beyond expectations! Her students have shown great growth in MAP scores as a direct result of her support during class and the interventions she has implemented. As for after school activities, Mrs. Sumner sponsors the BETA Club for middle school students, is instrumental leader for Science Academy, and cheers on the soccer teams. Our staff and teachers appreciate her skills with Canva and her computer savvy.
We applaud the excellent teaching and service leadership these Scholars Academy teachers provide!
Thank you for being an A+ teacher!

Congratulations to Mr. Seth Kinneer! Serving as an English teacher in Thomasville High School and the Scholars Academy since 2023, Mr. Kinneer goes above and beyond the call of duty. We appreciate how he encourages his students with postcards thanking them for doing a good job and holding impromptu parent conferences. With his upbeat personality and tenacious attitude, Mr. Kinneer serves in the district leadership cohort and volunteers as mentor to the Scholars Academy middle school student council. On Friday nights he graciously runs the scoreboard at THS football games. For Mr. Kinneer, relationships matter.
We applaud the excellent teaching and service leadership these Scholars Academy teachers provide!
