Mr. Edward R. Thomas
Greetings, and thank you for visiting my page. I have been in education since 2004. Newly out of Florida A & M University with a Bachelor's degree in Theatre Education, I began my educational career in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, at Palm Beach Gardens High School. After a rewarding yet brief stint in Florida teaching Theatre and Reading, I was led to South Paulding High School, where I continued my educational and professional growth. I am a proud "ground breaker" of South Paulding High School and have been here since it opened its doors to the youth of Paulding County in 2006. I enjoyed multiple years of teaching 9th Grade Literature and coaching basketball. I later acquired my Masters and Specialist degrees from the University of West Georgia. I have been able to serve as an administrator here since 2012. I have been blessed with the opportunity and the responsibility to make a positive impact on SPHS and the surrounding community, now in the role of Principal. In addition to my South Paulding family, I have my wonderful wife and biggest supporter, Cassandra, and my son William. When not at South, we enjoy traveling, socializing with King, our dog, and spending time with family. Education has opened many doors for me and has been a bridge to a plethora of destinations. My hope and passion are to build as many bridges as I can to help those who walk through South Paulding's doors reach their meaning and expectations of success.
