Pee Dee Academy Mourns the Passing of Mr. Hal Townsend
June 6th, 1939- December 28th, 2022

Mr. Townsend, more affectionately known as "Mr. T" by his PDA family, served as our Headmaster for 25 years. In 1995, he came out of retirement from public education to guide our school through an era of tremendous growth with him at the helm. While our leader, he also served on the Executive Committee of the South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA). He retired from PDA, and his career in education, in June 2020

Mr. T began his career in education after graduating from Wake Forest in 1961. In 1966, he began a 25 year stint as principal at his alma mater, Lake View High School, before retiring from public education in 1991.
