School Reviews

Currently, I have two scholars who are enrolled at TTA and one who Just graduated with high honors. I can truly say that I am pleased with my children's academic achievements. Thanks to TTA my son is heading to high school already performing at 10th and 11th-grade level. I am thankful for the extracurricular activities, the robotic's club, and the STEM program. At TTA the teachers are very supportive of their scholar's and every child is recognized for their academic achievement.
